An out of state traveller was lost on the back roads of Maine. He decided to stop and ask for directions.
"Which way to East Vassalboro?", he asked one of the locals.
The Mainer pondered for a moment, and then replied, "considering the highways as a graph, there is no transitive closure set that includes that point and this one."
(traditional punch line: "You can't get thre from here")
