English Original
Three paramedics were comparing their ambulance teams' improved response times.
"Since installing a new satellite navigation system," bragged the first, "we've cut our emergency response time by ten percent."
The others nodded. "Not bad," said the second. "But by using a computer model of traffic patterns, we've reduced our average response time by 20 percent."
Congratulations were exchanged until the third paramedic declared, "That's nothing! Since our ambulance driver passed the bar exam, we've cut our emergency response time in half!"

三名急救员正在比较各自救护车小组缩短的响应时间。
"自从安装了新的卫星导航系统,"第一位吹嘘道,"我们的紧急响应时间缩短了百分之十。"
其他人点头表示认可。"不错,"第二位说,"但通过使用交通模式的计算机模型,我们将平均响应时间减少了百分之二十。"
大家互相道贺,直到第三位急救员宣称:"那算什么!自从我们的救护车司机通过了律师资格考试,我们的紧急响应时间缩短了一半!"
