- 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?' and he smiles.
- 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 the same stuff - grass - .
- 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, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence,
- thinks about it and says,
- 'Hmmm, I have no idea.'
- To which the little girl replies,
- 'Do you really feel qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know shit?
