Yep - it's pretty obvious he cut and pasted that. Probably took all of two minutes.

I do miss the little sh*t, though. I'm addicted to his math problems. Maybe he's on strike because of all the abuse he's taking in the neverending story.

Hi guy's, the little $hit is back - badder than ever and ready to kick butt. Twisted Evil

(Oh yea of little faith, is the search for knowledge to be dismissed so easily!) Laughing


Can you, yes you; Find a positive integer (base 10) which has the following four properties:

(1) Each of the 10 digits (0 to 9) appears exactly once in the number.

(2) For each pair of digits whose sum is 9, the number of other digits positioned strictly between the pair is equal to the smaller digit of the pair.

(3) The sum of each pair of digits positioned at the same distance from opposite ends of the number is a prime number.

(4) The difference between any 2 adjacent digits is greater than 1.

The solution is unique. (I think) Question

Mark drove at a steady pace along the highway, his wife beside him. "Have you noticed," he said, "that those annoying signs for Wild and Wonderful Kansas seem to be regularly spaced along the road, I wonder how far apart they are."


Mrs Mark glanced at her watch, then counted the number of signs they passed in one minute.

"What an odd coincidence!" exclaimed Mrs Mark "When you multiply that number by ten, it exactly equals the speed of your car in miles per hour."

Assuming that the car's speed is constant, that the signs are equally spaced, and that Mrs Mark's minute began and ended with the car midway between two signs, how far is it between one sign and the next Question
