Not only kids but pilots. I got my license ten years ago and the answer to "How do planes?" was "Bernoulli."

Not only that, but depending on the particular FAA designated examiner you get, failing to tell him Bernoulli can result in a disapproval. I've heard of it happening.

Fortunately, none of this has ever mattered in the least for actually flying a plane, and there are plenty of sane examiners out there.
