>>
>>
>> Arthur was apparently embarrassed, but finally spoke, "Excuse me, but

>>
>> God said, "Ah, yes." Well," said Arthur, "professional to
>> professional, you have some major design flaws in your invention:
>>
>>
>> 1. There's too much inconsistency in the front-end protrusion;
>>
>>
>> 2. It chatters constantly at high speeds;
>>
>>
>> 3. Most of the rear ends are too soft and wobble too much;
>>
>>
>> 4. The intake is placed way too close to the exhaust;
>>
>>
>> 5. And the maintenance costs are outrageous!"
>>
>>
>> "Hmmm, you may have some good points there," replied God, "hold on."
>>
>>
>> God went to his celestial super-computer, typed in a few words and
>> waited for the results. The computer printed a slip of paper and God
>> read it.

>> "Well, it may be true that my invention is flawed," God said to
