An American gets on a plane and finds himself seated next to anbrIndian. He immediately turns to the Indian and makes his move.brbr"You know," says the American to the Indian, "I've heard thatbrflights will go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellowbrpassenger. So let's talk."brbrbrThe Indian, who had just opened his book, closes it slowly andbrsays to the American guy, "What would you like to discuss?"br"Oh, I don't know," says the guy, smiling. "How about nuclearbrpower?"brbrbr"OK," says the Indian. "That could be an interesting topic. Butbrlet me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the samebrstuff - grass. Yet the deer excretes little pellets, the cow turns out abrflat patty, and the horse produces muffins of dried poop. Why do youbrsuppose that is?"brbrbrThe American guy is dumbfounded. Finally he replies, "I haven'tbrthe slightest idea."br"So tell me," says the Indian, "How is it that you feel qualifiedbrto discuss nuclear power when you don't know shit?"brbr
