Austrians develop the world's thinnest wire

The Austrians developed the thinnest wire in the world. When it was finished, they wanted to know its diameter. However, the wire is so thin they can't measure it.

Says one Austrian: „Let's just send him to Germany. They're highly technologized. Maybe they can measure him.“

The other says, „No, we're not exposing ourselves to that. Let's send him to America first. They're also highly developed.“

So pack the wire in a box and include a note asking them to measure the wire's diameter. After two weeks, the box returns with a reply note: „Unfortunately, we cannot measure this wire. Too thin.“

Then the Austrian says again: “We'll have to send him to Germany.”

The other says: “No, we're sending him to China. That's where microchips are made. They can definitely measure him there.”

Easier said than done. They include another note asking to measure the wire. It takes another two weeks, and then the box is back.
Unfortunately, we cannot measure this wire. Too thin.“

One Austrian says: “Now Germany is all we have left.”

The other says: “Hmm. Alright then. Let's send him to Germany.”

So the wire is packed back into a box and sent to Germany. However, the Austrians forget to include a note stating what they actually want.

After 2 weeks, the package returns from Germany with a note from the German Engineers:

„Dear Austrian colleagues. We received a package with a roll of wire but no note. Since we didn't know what to do with it, we drilled a hole into the wire and cut a metric internal thread. We hope that is in your best interest.“
