From Sharon

A stranger was seated next to a little girl on the airplane
 when the stranger turned to her and said, "Let's talk. I've
 heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a
 conversation with your fellow passenger."
The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it
slowly and said to the stranger, "What would you like to
 talk about?"
Oh, I don't know", said the stranger. "How about nuclear
power?"
"OK," she said. "That could be an interesting topic. But
 let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer
 all eat grass, the same stuff. Yet a deer excretes little
 pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse
 produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that
 is?"

 The stranger thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no
 idea,"
To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel
 qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know crap?"
