Chicago Museum of Natural History

Some tourists in the Chicago Museum of Natural History are marveling at the dinosaur bones.

One of them asks the guard: ``Can you tell me how old the dinosaur bones are?''

The guard replies, ``They are 3 million, four years, and six months old''

``That's an awfully exact number'', says the tourist '`How do you know their age so precisely?''

The guard answers, ``Well, the dinosaur bones were three million years old when I started working here, and that was four and a half years ago''
