       Boss:  We won a government contract to measure ocean temperatures. 
       Dilbert:  Which part of the ocean?  Boss:  The whole ocean.  Dilbert: 
       We can't put sensors everywhere in the ocean. It's too big.  Boss:  We
       can measure a bunch of places and estimate the rest.  Dilbert: 
       So...you want me to measure 1% of the ocean's temperature and estimate
       the other 99%?  I don't know how to do that.  Boss:  Try using math. 
       Dilbert:  Wouldn't it be cheaper to measure nothing and just estimate
       the whole thing?  Boss:  Every now and then you come up with a great
       idea.
