Aseem and Numbers

I wrote today that I worry about Aseem not getting math basics. That is not really true. It all depends on the context. If you ask him "How much is 7 minus 5?", he may not be able to answer you. But here's what happened today. He likes to keep the TV volume at 5 when he plays the GameCube. Manisha brought down the volume to 7 from 21 and asked him if that was OK. He said, without hesitation, "Two more." Evidently he has a good enough working knowledge of numbers and basic math!
