A chicken joke?

    Well, this joke is forwarded by a net friend of mine, who is from Kaohsiung. He's lucky enough ( got very rich parents )...been to England and studied there for a while. You know English is not my mother tongue, and I never went abroad to study English before. So...這個笑話到底好笑在哪裡啊? @@  ( I mean what's so funny about it? ) Anyway let me paste it here, and maybe you guys who get the point can have a good laugh.  :P 

  
    Scientists at Roll Royce built a gun specifically to launch deadchickens at the windshields of airliners, and military jets, alltravelling at maximum velocity. The idea is to simulate the frequentincidents of collisions with airborne fowl to test the strength of theindshields. American engineers heard about the gun and were eager totest it on the windshields of their new high speedtrains.
 
    Arrangements were made, and a gun was sent to the American engineers.When the gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chickenhurled out of the barrel, crashed into the shatterproof shield,smashed it to smithereens, blasted through the control console, snapped theengineer's back-rest in two and embedded itself in the back wall ofthe cabin, like an arrow shot from a bow. The horrified Yanks sent RollsRoyce the disastrous results of the experiment, along with the designsof the windshield and begged the British scientists for suggestions.You're going to love this......

Rolls Royce responded with a one-line memo:
 
"Defrost the chicken."
