Green's Theorem
<humour> (TMRC) For any story, in any group of people there will be at
least one person who has not heard the story. A refinement of the theorem states
that there will be *exactly* one person (if there were more than one, it
wouldn't be as bad to re-tell the story). The name of this theorem is a play on
a fundamental theorem in calculus.
