 There are a mathematician, a physicist, and an engineer in a room... in a
corner. In the opposit corner there is a wonderful nude girl.

 Question: If you want to move to the girl, you can walk only half of the
distance in each step. In that conditions could you catch her?

 Physicist: No, never! I can see her, but I never will catch her...

 Mathematician: Well, I think I can catch her, but only in infinit time...

 Engineer: Yeah, you're right. But I think that I'll can be, in finit time,
in an enough distance...
