Mark spoke to the Association of Public Radio
Engineers meeting in conjunction with a National Association of
Broadcasters convention.
About 80 attended to hear Mark talk about the right and wrong things
to do in the broadcast engineering world.
Mark started the talk by telling about a
university professor and his chauffeur Frank. The professor
was known for giving a marvelous lecture on a particular subject and
was invited to give the same speech at many universities. This
was on the east coast where universities are close enough so the
professor could be driven to each speaking engagement by Frank the
chauffeur. On one such trip, Frank told the professor that he
had heard the speech so many times that even he could give it.
They agreed, pulled off the road, changed clothes, and the professor
drove the car to the lecture hall that day. Frank gave the
speech flawlessly. All was good until someone in the audience
stood up and asked a very difficult question. Without
missing a beat, Frank said, "That is such a simple question that
even my chauffeur standing in the corner could answer it!" |
