<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.
