Although I was going to try to phrase this question with "nand" and "and" I
realised that
"Which pine are you talking about, pine the wood or pine the unix
mail-reader?" would do it :)
"Which of pine the wood and pine the unix mail-reader are you talking
about?" would also.

Um also
"So are you talking about pine the wood or the unix mail-reader? Don't
answer with 'yes', b1tch; choose one!"
might get your point across, but may lead to some undue tension :-D
