There is a reason why the question shown below, from a Hong Kong elementary school test, is making the rounds on the internet. Most adults can't solve it not for want of math skills, but because most of them have lost the child's ability of unconventional thinking. Instead, they have acquired the debilitating unwillingness to try a different perspective.  Look closely...

The answer to the problem is provided below (BUT DON'T CHEAT).

 

 

Before you solve it (or give up), the problem is not mathematical, but rather philosophical. It proves that in spite of what modern "progressive" philosphers tell us; not all viewpoints are equally valid. In most cases there is only one point of view that leads to the right answer.

Agree Gary - lots of things look different from a different perspective - including the written word - when you read something and are offended by it, or think it is a slur - read it with different intonations, you will be amazed how different things can sound, depending on the intonation you put on the words.

Yes I found it relatively easy took about 2 min though, so according to Johnq I must have left school but not started drinking yet (well not legally anyway ) even though there are a lot of Km's on the body clock also and a few dents and scratches on the body panels
