            Bill Gates and the president of General Motors were attending a Q and A session during a business conference.  Gates boasted of the innovations his company had made.  “If GM had kept up with technology the way Microsoft has,” Gates bragged, “we’d all be driving $25 cars that get 1000 miles per gallon.”

            “I suppose that’s true,” the GM executive agreed, “But would you really want your car to crash twice a day?” - Playboy, “Laughter, the Best Medicine”
