The Experts

Nice poem right here. Amateurs built the ark, but the titanic was built by professionals. I am definately NOT going to study today. fifteen minutes to go for tommorrow, and I might just as well get some serious shut eye. Feeling like it anyhow. Will manage to study something tommorrow before college. Hopefull...
anyway, the poem:

The Experts

Give three cheers for experts,
They know a thing or two,
And if we didn't have 'em
Whatever would we do?

They built a ship that couldn't sink;
It sailed across the sea.
Its name was the Titanic
It's gone down in history.

For years and years the experts knew
The Sun went round the Earth
And when Copernicus said: 'Wrong!"
They couldn't hide their mirth

They told Columbus not to sail
Because he might fall off.
They had King Louis bled to death,
Because he'd got a cough.

Lord Kelvin was a scientist -
A really clever guy
Who proved by mathematics
That man would never fly.

And now we've all got nuclear power
So give three mighty cheers -
The experts say it can't go wrong,
Once in ten thousand years!
-Terry Jones
