An experiment to reach beautiful woman


A mathematician and an engineer agreed to take part in an experiment.

They were both placed in a room and at the other end was a beautiful undressed woman on a bed.

The experimenter said every 30 seconds they would be allowed to travel half the distance between themselves and the woman.

The mathematician said “this is pointless” and stormed off.

The engineer agreed to go ahead with the experiment anyway.

The mathematician exclaimed on his way out “don’t you see, you’ll never actually reach her?”.

To which the engineer replied, “so what?

Pretty soon I’ll be close enough for all practical purposes!”
