gangerh commented on the word total immersion
But utilizing a 'total immersion' system of learning, Dr Colin Parrot of Warwick University successfully mastered basic binary and can converse, but with a limited vocabulary and at only one-thousandth the speed. 'Colin did jolly well,' said his teacher, friend and mentor, Adrian 1001010111111101010. 'His language skills are about on a par with those of a programmable toaster. Given a couple of years more, he'll be able to have an intelligent one-on-one with a dishwasher.'
'The only known human able to speak binary' from The Bumper Book of Berkshire Records, 2004 edition as quoted in The Fourth Bear by Jasper Fforde.
