Naidu replied: 'Less have I understood Than yourself: my version would be no good'. Rejoined Singh: 'How can you understand 'less'? Less than nothing, can anything be? ' Caught unawares, but showing no stress, Naidu reflected while sipping his tea. He then said: 'I've misunderstood the whole mess; And as you will surely agree with me - Misunderstanding is much worse a thing Than not understanding; hence less than nothing.
