  What is the difference between a physicist, an engineer, and a mathematician? 

  
  If an engineer walks into a room and sees a fire in the middle of the room and a bucket of water in the corner, he/she takes the bucket of water and pours it on the fire and puts it out. 
  
  If a physicist walks into a room and sees a fire in the middle of the room and a bucket of water in the corner, he/she takes the bucket of water and pours it gently around the fire and lets the fire put itself out. 
  
  If a mathematician walks into a room and sees a fire in the middle of the room and a bucket of water in the corner, he/she convinces himself/herself there is a solution and leaves.

   

   

  Har!  Good one...but I have a question...how did the leaves get into the room?

  .how did the leaves get into the room?

  My hypothesis: no windows.

  So, I think I'm keeping up with this, let's see if I've got this straight. Are you guys saying -

  All two's are equal but some two's are more equal than others?

  An economist walks into the room and assumes he has a tripod, kettle, some vegetables and salt.  Then he charges you for the soup.

  "A Big thanks to each who either contributed 'positively' here or just saw the 'fun & harmlessness' in like minds gathering at play... A few of us, like kids, found connection thru the languages of math & physics and really enjoyed your company.

  'Me thinks we can let this thread go now...

  Unless I see more of this banter in 'Community Introductions', after this weekend, I'll use the "... And Everything Else" corner for play...

  Ironically though, one of the more popular threads down there seems to be a series of 'community introductions'... lol"
