Deductive Reasoning Cypherpunk: "Hi there new neighbor, it sure is a mighty nice day to be moving" Neighbor 1: "Yes, it is and people around here seem extremely friendly" Cypherpunk: "So what is it you do for a living?" Neighbor 1: "I am a professor at the University, I teach deductive reasoning" Cypherpunk: "Deductive reasoning, what is that?" Neighbor 1: "Let me give you and example. I see you have a dog house out back. By that I deduce that you have a dog." Cypherpunk: "That is right" Neighbor 1: "The fact that you have a dog, leads me to deduce that you have a family" Cypherpunk: "Right again" Neighbor 1: "Since you have a family I deduce that you have a wife" Cypherpunk: "Correct" Neighbor 1: "And since you have a wife I can deduce that you are heterosexual." Cypherpunk: "Yup" Neighbor 1: "That is deductive reasoning" Cypherpunk: "Cool" Later that same day Cypherpunk: "Hey I was talking to that new guy who moved in next door" Neighbor 2: "Is he a nice guy?" Cypherpunk: "Yes, and he has an interesting job" Neighbor 2: "Oh, yeah what does he do?" Cypherpunk: "He is a professor of deductive reasoning at the University" Neighbor 2: "Deductive reasoning, what is that" Cypherpunk: "Let me give you an example. Do you have a dog house?" Neighbor 2: "No Cypherpunk: "Fag." This message was automatically remailed. The sender is unknown, unlogged, and nonreplyable. Send complaints and blocking requests to <goddesshera@juno.com>.
