The Programmer and the Engineer

A Programmer and an Engineer were
sitting next to each other on an
airplane. The Programmer leans over to
the Engineer and asks if he wants to
play a fun game. The Engineer just wants
to sleep so he politely declines, turns
away and tries to sleep. The Programmer
persists and explains that it's a real
easy game. He explains, "I ask a
question and if you don't know the
answer you pay me $5. Then you ask a
question and if I don't know the answer
I'll pay you $5." Again the Engineer
politely declines and tries to sleep.

The Programmer, now somewhat agitated,
says, "O.K., if you don't know the
answer you pay me $5 and if I don't know
the answer I pay you $50! " Now, that
got the Engineer's attention, so he
agrees to the game. The Programmer asks
the first question, "What's the distance
from the earth to the moon?" Then
Engineer doesn't say a word and just
hands the Programmer $5.

Now, its the Engineer's turn. He asks
the Programmer, "What goes up a hill
with three legs and comes down on four?"
The Programmer looks at him with a
puzzled look, takes out his laptop
computer, looks through all his
references and after about an hour wakes
the Engineer and hands the Engineer $50.
The Engineer politely takes the $50
turns away and tries to return to sleep.

The Programmer, a little miffed, asks,
"Well what's the answer to the
question?" Without a word, the Engineer
reaches into his wallet, hands $5 to the
Programmer, turns away and returns to sleep.
"All that is needed for evil to succeed is, that decent human beings doing nothing". (Edmund Burke)
