At work we somehow landed on the topic of how many holes a human has, which then evolved into a heated discussion on the classic question of how many holes does a straw have.

I think it’s two, but some people are convinced that it’s one, which I just don’t understand. What are your thoughts?

    In topology, yes. It must go through to count.

      That’s fascinating. So most of what I would call “holes” are what, in topographical terms, hollows? Depressions?
