Yes, but if a plane crashes on the border between France, Switzerland and Germany where do they bury the survivors?


Why would you bury survivors?


That is the essence of the joke / tease. It is a very old childhood joke where kids start to debate where the people should be buried based on various criteria such as nationality before the teaser points out the "survivors" bit. I thought this was a well known joke / tease?


Maybe adult aspies are a little more observant and analytical than kids prone to jump to conclusions. Or maybe it IS well known and we've all heard it by now.
