Dumb joke - really really dumb - like smoking
-
(Hey, what did you expect of me? :-\ ) Four men in a boat had cigarettes, but no matches. Finally, one man had an idea: he tossed one cigarette into the ocean. Then they could all smoke -- because the boat had become a cigarette lighter.

Hey, my grandfather used to tell us that in the form of a riddle. Q: "A man in a boat had cigarettes but no matches. How did he smoke?" A: "He threw one overboard, making the boat a cigarette lighter."

G-ROAN!
I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image. Stephen Hawking

It makes more sense as a riddle to me... It reminds me of the man in the room with no doors. A man is in a room that has no doors or windows with nothing but a table and a mirror. How does he get out? He looks into the mirror and sees what he saw. He takes the saw and cuts the table in half. Two halves make a whole. He exists through the hole.
Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

I seem to recall it involving a saw (wordplay about the mirror), but I forget. How does he get out?

You are correct. I had it towards the bottom of my post. He looks into the mirror and sees what he saw. He takes the saw and cuts the table in half. Two halves make a whole. He exists through the hole.

Oh. I see it now. It looked like part of your sig to these tired eyes. I can't brain today, I have the dumb.
