   About a month ago someone made a remark about MPI that
I found quite humorous.  However, I can only remember the
jist of the joke right now.  I would like to use it in an
presentation.  Could the person that wrote the
original joke, or anyone with a good MPI joke either post
it or email me directly.  The original went something like
this.
   One of the parallel programming language standards
   MPI adhers to is that it's so complicated that
   a programmer can only understand a small fraction
   of it.

thanks in advance,
