  • I'll give you an example.

    我給你舉個例子。

  • When I was a meteorologist in World War II, what I was actually doing was clearing pilots to take flights.

  • And it just reversed the problem.

    而這恰恰扭轉了問題。

  • I inverted.

    我倒了過來。

  • I said, suppose I wanted to kill a lot of pilots.

  • What would be the easy way to do it?

    有什麼簡單的方法?

  • And I soon concluded that the only easy way to do it would be to get the planes into icing the planes couldn't handle, or to get the pilot to a place where he'd run out of fuel before he could safely land.

    我很快就得出結論,唯一簡單的辦法就是讓飛機遇到飛機無法承受的結冰,或者讓飛行員在安全著陸之前就耗盡燃料。

  • So I made up my mind I was going to stay miles away from killing pilots by either icing or getting them into socked in conditions when they couldn't land.

    這是同一件事,只是反過來而已。

  • But it works better to frequently to invert the problem.

    但經常把問題反過來想,效果會更好。

  • If you're a meteorologist, it really helps if you really know how to avoid something, which is the only thing that's going to kill your pilots.

    如果你是氣象學家,如果你真的知道如何避開一些東西,那就真的很有幫助,這是唯一會讓飛行員喪命的東西。

  • And you can help India best if you understand what will really hurt India the easiest and worst.

    如果你瞭解什麼對印度的傷害最大,什麼對印度的傷害最嚴重,你就能更好地幫助印度。
