How many mathematicians does it take to change a lightbulb? A. One, he gives the lightbulb to 3 engineers, thus reducing the problem to a previously solved joke. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
