   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.
