I once asked a wise programmer for the definition of hypertext. The programmer sighed.

"That's a hard one," he replied. "Ask me something simple next time, like the definition of love." He folded his hands and meditated for hours. Then he spoke. This is what he said:

"Hypertext? It's just text on caffeine. Lots of it. That's why it's hyper, you see."
