My geeky sense of humor

So we are talking to a theoretician about what kind of data we would like to get out of his models. Mary said that she would like to see vibrational modes, sensitivity, excitation states, etc. Then she paused.

He asked, "anything else?"

My stupid response, "well if you could give us position and momentum simultaneously that would be nice".

Took him a minute to respond and then he said, "well I suppose that would mean the project was over then?"

My response, "Is that a bad thing at that point?"

Him, "The Nobel works for me".
