[Coco] Re: Coco Digest, Vol 35, Issue 1 - THIS EXPLAINS IT ALL!

[Bert & Peggy Schneider]

I don't know of that kind of research, but I did find out the following:

This explains it all!:

"Dilbert's Theorem on Salary" states that engineers, programmers, and
scientists can never earn as much salary as business executives,
contract administrators or sales people.
     
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:
     
   Work
   ---------      = Money
  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.

I totally agree. If it wasn't for my need of the internet for schooling
and
my hobby in video work, all the computing power I need is contained in
the CoCo.
