An interview with Sol

An interview with Sol.

I interviewed Sol as he was going to the bathroom on the potty. Here's the transcript:

Me: What's 1 + 1?
Sol: 60 dollars.

Me: What's 2 + 2?
Sol: 1, 2, 3. 3 bushes.

Me: What's 3 + 3?
Sol: OK.

Me: What's 4 + 4?
Sol: [unintelligible]

Me: What's 5 + 5?
Sol: Money.

Me: What's 6 + 6?
Sol: Are you drawing me peeing on the potty? [Actually, I'm recording his responses in a notebook.]

Me: What's 7 + 7?
Sol: Yeah.

Me: What's 8 + 8?
Sol: Uhhhh. Let me try [to hold the notebook. Can] I draw poop? [Scribbles.]

Me: What's 9 + 9?
Sol: OK!

Me: What's 10 + 10?
Sol: OK.

Me: Is that it?
Sol: Yeah.
