Instruction manuals... for feeding bottles

We broke out our stack of feeding bottles this evening, to clean and get them ready for use. One expects a bottle to be composed of the following parts:
- Cap
- Bottle body
- Nipple

We were rather shocked to see that these bottles require an engineering degree to disassemble, and if you're really lucky, you may be able to put all 7 parts back together again in a shape that resembles a bottle. For assistance to the bottle-challenged, the manufacturers have graciously included an instruction manual in 6 different languages. Wonder what happens when the manual gets misplaced (it will), and the baby is hungry.
