I'm interested in jokes which are VERY VERY funny for a VERY small
audience -- that is, jokes which score very high with anyone who understands
them but there aren't very many people who do.  

Examples: Kelly-Bootle's wonderful French Unix --
	%ls amelia earhart
	% amelia earhart ne pas trouvee
	%ls jimmy hoffa
	% jimmy hoffa ne pas trouve

   Or from the days of my youth and "grape jokes":
	Q: What's purple and commutes?
	A: An Abelian grape.    (haarrh!, haarrh!, haarrh!  God, is that
	funny!!)

I'd love to see proposals for other jokes in this rather special category.
