Nature is full of these ironies. My favorite is that when bread and crackers
are exposed to the same environment, the bread becomes hard and the crackers
become soft! (Posted on someone's door at Stanford Research Institue back in
the 60's.)

Not so ironic at all. The bread lost it's moisture but the cracker
absorbed it due to the salt being a natural desiccant. The irony was
lost because the outcome was predictable.

OK, I know . . . no one likes a smart ass :-)
