all time great lines

We were discussing something strategic in a major meeting today. Some words like Venn diagram were being bandied about. Venn diagram is when you show two or more sets represented as circles and you show the intersection between the two in order to understand the overlap. A website that uses this to show relationships between seemingly disparate sets can be accessed here.

So this guy (sweet guy, slightly senior to me) took the marker and drew something where he drew a circle and then another circle inside it and some thing outside it in his effort to explain his point, which for the record wasnt too bad. Just a bit confusing.

I couldn’t help remarking “this is not a Venn diagram, it is a Vent diagram. A lot of hot gas passes through it”

The laughter lasted for a few minutes afterwards.
