Isaac Asimov joke.

Back in the day, the astronomy professor goes to the college dean to ask for money for a new observatory.

The Dean blows up at him!

"You science people are always asking for money! Chemistry wants gold! Physics wants a dyanmo! Why can't you be like the math department? All they ever want is paper, pencils and erasers!

"And the philosophy department is even better. They don't need erasers!"
