Sorry,I Don't Play Well With Others

Opened up my morning Internet cruising with some funny yet clever stuff...

"Dr. Schambaugh, of the University of Oklahoma School of Chemical
Engineering,

Final Examination question for May of 1997.

Dr. Schambaugh is known for asking questions such as, "Why do aeroplanes
fly?" on his final exams.
His one and only final exam question in May 1997 for his Momentum, Heat
and Mass Transfer II Class was: "Is hell exothermic or endothermic?
Support your answer with proof. "

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law or
some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:
"First, We postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass.
If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate
are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think we
can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave.
Therefore, no souls are leaving.
As for souls entering hell, let's look at different religions that exist
in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a
member of their religion, then you will go to hell. Since there are more
than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one
religion, we can project that all people and souls go to hell.
With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls
in hell to increase exponentially.
Now we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's law states
that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same,
the ratio of the mass of souls and volume of souls needs to stay constant.
Two options exist:
1. If hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until
all hell breaks loose.
2. If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.
So which is it? If we accept the quote given to me by Theresa Manyan
during Freshman year, that "it will be cold night in hell before I sleep
with you" and take account the fact that I still have NOT succeeded in
having sexual relations with her, the Option 2 cannot be true...
Thus hell is exothermic. "

The student, Tim Graham, got the only A."


Sooo klever la u boi!
