Subject: Ticket Please
Date: Wed, 24 Sep 1997 13:00:54 -0700
> Three engineers and three mathematicians are travling by train to a
> conference. At the station, the three mathematicians each buy tickets
> and watch as the three engineers buy only a single ticket.
>
> "How are three people going to travel on one ticket?" asks a
> mathematician.
>
> "Watch and you'll see," answers an engineer.
>
> They all board the train. The mathematicians take their respective
> seats,
> but all three engineers cram into a restroom and close the door behind
> them. Shortly after the train has departed, the conductor comes
> around
> collecting tickets. He knocks on the restroom door and says, "Ticket,
> please." The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a
> ticket in hand. The conductor takes it and moves on.
>
> The mathematicians see this and agree it is quite a clever idea. So
> after
> the conference, the mathematicians decide to copy the engineers on the
> return trip and save some money (being clever with money, and all
> that).
> When they get to the station, they buy a single ticket for the return
> trip.
> To their astonishment, the engineers don't buy a ticket at all.
>
> "How are you going to travel without a ticket?" asks one perplexed
> mathematician.
>
> "Watch and you'll see," answers an engineer.
>
> When they board the train, the three mathematicians all cram into one
> restroom and the three engineers cram into another one nearby. The
> train departs. Shortly afterward, one of the engineers leaves his
> restroom and walks over to the restroom where the mathematicians are
> hiding. He knocks on the door and says, "Ticket, please."
