Me either. In fact, I was as stumped as the OP. I've never really 
considered "in" as a comparison; in my mind comparisons are between like 
items: numbers vs numbers, and so forth. Not elements versus a 
collection of elements.

Can someone show me a real world, or failing that - sane looking, 
chained comparison using "in"?
