Fortune Quote #3217

A bunch of Polish scientists decided to flee their repressive government
by hijacking an airliner and forcing the pilot to fly them to the West.
They drove to the airport, forced their way on board a large passenger jet,
and found there was no pilot on board. Terrified, they listened as the
sirens got louder. Finally, one of the scientists suggested that since he
was an experimentalist, he would try to fly the aircraft. He sat down at
the controls and tried to figure them out. The sirens got louder and
louder. Armed men surrounded the jet. The would be pilot's friends cried
out, "Please, please take off now!!! Hurry!!!" The experimentalist calmly
replied, "Have patience. I'm just a simple pole in a complex plane."
