At the café
-
A biologist, a physicist and a mathematician were sitting in a street café watching the crowd. Across the street they saw a man and a woman entering a building. Five minutes later they reappeared together with a third person. : They have multiplied, said the biologist. : Oh no, an error in measurement, the physicist sighed. : If exactly one person enters the building now, it will be empty again, the mathematician concluded.

I think it's interesting that we often qu-ote each other in our sigs and attribute the qu-otes to "The Lounge". --- Daniel Fergusson, "The Lounge"

Reminds me of another story about the Biologist, the Physicist and the Mathematician: The three were riding a train in England, suddenly they see a black sheep in the field from their booth window. The Bilogist remarks: "All sheeps in England are black". The Physicist corrects: "In England, there's at least one black sheep." The Mathematician concludes: "In England there's at least one field, in which there's at least one sheep, of which at least one side is black..." Mathematicians have a bad rap :suss: Isaac Sasson, Small time programmer - complainer at large. Sonork ID 100.13704

Just remembered another story: There was a test trying to find out whether all odd numbers were Primary Numbers (numbers that only divide in 1 and themselves). The Engineer started and said: "I proved that 2, 3, 5 and 7 are primary, and concluded that the rest are thus primary as well." The Physicist tested and said: "2, 3, 5 and 7 are primary. 9 is an experiment inaccuracy. 11 and 13 are also primary - Assumption proved." Then the mathematician said: "2, 3, 5 and 7 are primary, 9 isn't - assumption incorrect!" Good thing we have Mathematicians ;P P.S. I won't even mention the Biologist... ;P Isaac Sasson, Small time programmer - complainer at large. Sonork ID 100.13704
