In topology this question has no good yes or no answer. It's like the question, Are you still beating your wife? There is no good answer. You can say no, but that means you used to beat her, and that isn't good. If you say yes, then it means you are still beating her, and that really isn't good. The same idea can be applied to the question on the board, there is no simple yes or no answer.

We were discussing something in topology that there was no definite answer to. How she came up with the relation to wife beating, I have no clue, but it was an amusing comparison.
