Did you ever see the movie pi (3.14)? Didn't a "perplexing problem which ceaselessly seeks resolution" drive the guy to madness?

I haven't been following this particular thread, but I presume this is a Zen Koan, much like "What is the sound of one hand clapping"? If it is, it is not designed to be answered, in Zen it is said that the quickest way to enlightenment is to struggle with a "doubt mass", a perplexing problem which ceaselessly seeks resolution. If it isn't a koan, then how about "less than the number of Pianos" as an answer? > -----Original Message----- > From: Haggerty, Mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 26 June 2003 19:39 > To: CF-Community > Subject: RE: How many piano tuners are there in the world? > > > How do you realistically solve the piano tuners problem? > > I mean, I am big on brain teasers, but this one leaves a lot > of room for interpretation. > > Possible answer: > > 'Enough.' > > M > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=5 Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
