A stranger was seated next to a little girl on the airplane when
the stranger turned to her and said, "Let's talk. I've heard that
flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow
passenger."
The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly
and said to the stranger
"What would you like to talk about?"
"Oh, I don't know", said the stranger. "How about nuclear power?"
"OK" she said. "That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you
A question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat grass, the same stuff
Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat
patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?
The stranger thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea."
The little girl asks, "Do you feel qualified to discuss nuclear
power when you don't know shit?"
