CS Dept. Lines: 18 I heard this one once: What's the difference between a mathematician, a physicist and an engineer? A mathematician assumes that a series is divergent until the opposite has been proven. A physicist assumes that a series is convergent until the opposite has been proven. An engineer assumes that a series is convergent even though the opposite has been proven. Well, I like it. /Michael I. Schwartzbach
