Reminds me of the physicist, the chemist and the ecnomist washed up with a tin of beans on a desert island. there's no tin opener so the physicist says,"we could heat a stick up in the fire so the point becomes hard and we can pierce the tin with it". This is tried and fails so the chemist says,"we can just put the tin in the fire and the pressure will burst the lid off the can". This was tried so the two of them look at the economist who says,"First of all assume there is a tinopener!"
