Hopefully they understood that the notes would be VERY important.
Nolan let out a hearty laugh. "I'm sure it was discovered in the pyramids, since I'm fairly certain that most artifacts were discovered there...even though I can't say that for sure, since I'm no historian," he said with a chuckle. "I'm sure the book was not found with a mummy though. They probably held onto their gold necklaces and such instead," he told him.
"One thing that people need to be careful of when interpreting dreams is a false awakening. Can anyone tell me what that is?" he asked them. It was very important they knew what it was before interpreting dreams of their own! Joshua nodded his head seriously, acting like his Mummy had told him and trying to look like a grown up. So it probably was discovered in the pyramids. Awesome. The pyramids were amaaazing. And giant! HUUUUGE. But pretty cool. Joshua wanted to go see them, but his Mum was scared he would run away and get lost in them.
He was probably right.
"You can't blame them for holding on to the gold! Books don't put food in their stomachs." He wisely said, patting his stomach for added effect. Nevermind that they'd probably be dead when clinging to the gold anyway. Pfft.
Now ... a false awakening?
Joshua thought it over for a bit before waving his arm in the air again. He was small! He needed to get the Professor's attention! "That's when people are dreaming that they are asleep, right? And then they wake up in their dream! They think they're awake, but really, they're sleeping and DREAMING they're awake! .... right?" Totally!
