"Schlocky" is constructing a riddle with multiple interpretations so
that no matter which answer the victim gives, the perpetrator can
cackle (or cluck, in some cases) from his position of "wisdom". This
is a trick often played by college sophomores engineering nerds on
their freshman dorm-mates.

Bull.
You mean 'specified conditions'.
'All ...' would mean also when the sun burns out.
Clue, clue clue

Am I to suppose all of his linear ICs will work at liquid helium
temperatures, or at 350C?
