You got it dude. That one took me a few minutes when I was in high school. I don't remember the ones I didn't figure out. <G>

The best one I *ever* heard was this one with nine identical metal balls and a scale. One ball is either lighter or heavier than the others. You are allowed a maximum of three weighings of whatever balls you choose. Find the ball that is different and whether it is lighter or heavier. I screwed with that for about 2 months and never got it.
