Conversation on the Couch

Jason and I were on the couch watching tv.  He was having a hard time falling asleep, so I let him stay up with me for a minute.  This is the conversation we had...

Jason: Mom, how does the remote work?

Me:  I don't know.  How do you think?

Jason:  I think it's from batteries.

Me:  It does have batteries.

Jason:  I think they took lightning and trapped it in the batteries.  Because isn't lightening energy?
Lightning is energy and it can power anything that needs to be charged.

Me:  Well, that is smart thinking!

Jason:  I know a little bit about science.

Me: Oh really? (laughing)

Jason:  I actually do.
