How do these jokes make there way across the Atlantic?  I heard this joke
when I was an engineering student at the University of Wisconsin in the early
1960's.  Frederic, can you please explain the joke to me?  Remember, I was
an engineering student at a time when there were few women in engineering, at
least in the USA.
