A mathematician, an engineer, and a physicist all agree: Platonic Realms cooks up new jokes, puns, and limericks every day! 


Joke o'the Day:

A mathematician, a physicist, and a biologist were sitting in a sidewalk cafe watching people going into and coming out of the house across the street. First they see two people go into the house. Time passes, and then they observe three people come out of the house.
        The physicist: "The first measurement wasn’t accurate."
        The biologist: "They have reproduced."
        The mathematician: "If exactly one person enters the house, it will be empty again."



A Lame One:

Why did the mathematician name his dog "Cauchy?" Because he left a residue at every pole.


Poetry Corner:

A conjecture both deep and profound
Is whether a circle is round.
     In a paper of Erdös
     Written in Kurdish
A counter-example is found.



How They Do It:

Gödel did it consistently but not completely.


Check back tomorrow – postings changed daily!
