I heard a great joke that went along with this at one point .. but I don't remember the whole thing..... =(. I'll tell it as best as I remember though, because I thought it was funny.
A mathematician and a theortical physicist (both are heterosexual men for this example) are brought into a room and put in a chair at one end of the room. At the other end of the room is a beautiful woman lounging seductively in the nude on a couch. The two men are told that they can have sex with her when they reach her, but that they are only allowed to move toward her by closing half the distance to her on each move.
Well, the mathematician says, "this is useless, we'll never reach her!" and he leaves. The theoretical physicist starts to take off his clothes and the coordinator says, "You do realize that you will never reach her don't you?" and he replies, "I'll get close enough."
