Attn: all Thicko engineers and scientists <g>

>Dilbert's Theorem on Salary states that engineers
>and scientists can never earn as much salary as
>business executives and salespeople. This theorem
>can now be supported by a mathematical equation
>based on the following two postulates:
>
>   Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.
>   Postulate 2: Time is Money.
>
>As every engineer knows:
>
>   WORK = POWER * TIME
>
>Since Knowledge = Power, and Time = Money, we have:
>
>   WORK = KNOWLEDGE * MONEY
>
>Solving for Money, we get:
>
>   MONEY = WORK / KNOWLEDGE
>
>Thus, as KNOWLEDGE approaches zero, MONEY approaches
>infinity regardless of the amount of WORK done.
>
>Conclusion: The less you know, the more you make
