A physicist, a mathematician and a logician are on the train to Scotland. As they cross the border, the physicist looks out the window and sees a sheep.

"Look, the sheep in Scotland are black."

"No," says the mathematician, "one of the sheep in Scotland is black."

"Still not right," says the logician, "one side of one of the sheep in Scotland is black."
