conversation with your fellow passenger. So let's talk."

The blonde, who had just opened her book, closes it slowly and says
to the guy, "What would you like to discuss?" "Oh, I don't know,"says
the guy. How about nuclear power?"

"OK," says the blonde. "That could be an interesting topic. But let
me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the
same stuff--grass. Yet the deer excretes little pellets, the cow turns
out a flat patty, and the horse produces muffins of dried poop. Why do
you suppose that is?"

The guy is dumbfounded. Finally he replies, "I haven't the slightest idea."

"So tell me," says the blonde, "How is it that you feel qualified to
discuss nuclear power when you don't know shit?
