Reminds me of a joke. With the advance in neurosurgery brain transplant is now a reality. There was this guy who was not satisfied with his brain and was shopping for a new one. He came across 3 brains on the display shelves each with very different prices. Out of curiousity he asked the salesman why the great disparity in prices.

"Glad that you asked," replied the salesman. "Brain A (US$100,000) used to belong to an intellectual whose work had earned him a Nobel prize. Brain B (US50,000) used to belong to a scientist whose worked was just mediocre."

"But this brain here (C) looks so new and so much better than the rest. And it only cost US$100?" asked the guy.

"Well, because it was hardly used...."
