  A large factory's central machine broke down one day.  All work in the
factory came to a halt.  They of course immediately called in a repairman.

  The repairman arrives quickly.  He checks a few dials, and examines the
positions of several large gears and levers.  He then opens up a panel,
exposing a valve handle, and turns the handle one-and-three-quarters turns
to the left.  The machine immediately resumes operations.

  The repairman hands the plant manager a bill for $505.

  "Five-hundred and five dollars!?!  For adjusting a valve??" exclaims the
manager.

  The repairman replies, "No.  For that, five dollars.  For knowing to
adjust it, five hundred dollars."
