I'm pretty sure i'm not world class. That said, twice in the past few years I've been in the situation where the interviewer was wrong (recently like over a dozen times in the interview on different topics!). Most of the time I just brush it off, but I'm not the type to let things slide on technical issues with black and white answers. So sometimes if pushed i will try to gently backup my statement with concrete examples (goggleable if you will). But, still if you piss someone off by telling them to google it, you definitely get the "culture fit" answer. So, i'm not sure how to crack that nut. Maybe the best answer is you probably are not going to fit in, and terminating it early is a good idea. Its like the crazy member of the opposite sex who breaks up with you, and all you feel is relief. BTW: When I got the culture fit answer recently, I almost sent the hiring manager the "your techie is presenting himself as an expert in the following areas critical to your success but he thinks a,b,c,d. These aren't even areas subject to disagreement by knowledgeable people. Here are the actual answers complete with hard references you can verify." But when I cooled down, I figured the best response was the pleasant thank you for your time answer.
