Joke I heard 30 years ago.

A scientist was consumed with creating the most powerful computer in the world. He figured out how to chain all the world's most powerful computers like the ones used by NASA and the ones used by weather service to predict hurricane paths. Finally after years of work he had them all hooked to a single monitor.

When the day came to log on to the terminal he had scientists and politicians from around the world standing behind staring at the blinking cursor. Someone asked, "What should we ask it?" The scientist who started it all typed in:

"Is there a God?"

The computer stalled for a second and then replied, "there is now."
