Two missionaries in Africa get caught by a tribe of very hostile cannibals
who put them in a large pot of water, build a huge fire under it, and leave
them there.  A few minutes later, one of the missionaries starts to laugh
mischievously.  The other missionary can't believe it!

He says, "What's wrong with you?  We're being boiled alive!  They're gonna
eat us!  What could possibly be funny at a time like this?"  The other
missionary says, "I just peed in their soup."

 you still there?  Did you know that
the square root of 10 is 3 point 162277660168379?  Log 10 to the base
e is zero point 434294481903252 ... correction, that is log e to the
base 10..."
