I once tried to get the timing of a signal right by adding/removing cables of different length. The cables had labels "1B", "2B", "3B", "4B" from some previous use. I quickly encountered the question "2B or not 2B" - seriously. The answer was to include 2B.

I told this joke on this website several years ago, but it's time to tell it again.

A logical joke:

Code:
2B OR NOT 2B

That is the question.

Code:
TRUE

That is the answer.

Hmm yes, that's why I keep burning all of my eggs! It's because I haven't been solving the thermal diffusion equation with an expansion in spherical waves of the form ##T_k(r,t) = \frac{B_k}{r}e^{i(\omega t - kr)}##! :doh:
