@pezgrl One for B! A hunter walks 1 mile south, then 1 mile east and sees a bear. He walks 1 mile north and is back at his camp.

What was the color of the bear?

@amyb 14 years ago

I know, I know! I remember it from childhood, and I probably didn't figure it out then :p

@msincognito 14 years ago

Oooh! I got it!!!

@msincognito 14 years ago

Yes, he started at camp! Can I spill it, nomu?!

@nomu 14 years ago

@msincognito Sure, I think 1 hour is a good enough lead. ðŸ˜‰ I got it, but I'm not sure I would have when I was younger. It's a great lead into a discussion about geodesics and non-Euclidean geometry.

@nomu 14 years ago

Yes, he started at camp. I should have made that clear.

@nomu 14 years ago

@msincognito How about you spill the answer, but leave the explanation hanging a bit? ðŸ˜‰

@msincognito 14 years ago

The bear was white ðŸ˜ƒ

@nomu 14 years ago

Yup! Magnetic or geographic...
