| A man in a hot air balloon
realized he was lost. He reduced altitude and
spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more
and shouted, "Excuse me, can you help me?
I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago,
but I don't know where I am." The woman
replied, "You are in a hot air balloon
approximately 30 feet above the ground.
You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude
and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude." "You must be a republican," said the balloonist. "I am," replied the woman. How did you know?" "Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I am still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help so far." The woman below responded. "You must be a democrat." "I am," replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?" "Well," said the woman, "you don't know where you are or where you are going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise which you have no idea how to keep, and expect me to solve your problem. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it's my fault."
