Neither do I. A wag would be Chinese.
A person who could really read human minds would be privileged to gaze on some correct imitations of chaos.

I'm reminded of Japanese copies of U.S. tools made prior to WWII.  Years ago at a Missouri  Valley Wrench Club meet, a member showed a pre-war Japanese socket set that was an exact copy of a Starrett 443 (patented in 1916), but with Japanese characters stamped on all the parts.
