There's actually a story behind this picture. The little girl and her brother were playing at home when they heard the commotion over the fire. They with their dad went to investigate and the dad snapped the photo. The fire was part of a planned burn of a derelict property for fire dept training.jack action said:
Museum visitor: "How old is the mammoth skeleton?"fresh_42 said:An international team has found a mammoth in the Siberian tundra. The scientists bet which one of them can determine its age most precisely. The German scientist crawled into the cave and returned after 10 minutes: "It is 3.5 million years old." I can do better, said the American and crawled into the cave. He returned after an hour and said: "It is 3.47 million years old." At last the Russian scientist vanished in the cave. His colleagues waited for an hour, two hours, three hours, but it wasn't before the next day when he returned. "And? What do you think?" - "It is 3,468,324 years, 5 month and 2 days old!" - "Wow! How can you know?" - "The interrogation was tough, but in the end he confessed."

That's what logicians do. The rest uses a Möbius-transformation on the Riemann sphere, or Cauchy's integral formula in case the rabbit's residue is known.mfb said:Too inefficient.

I thought that the usual method of catching a rabbit was to paint yourself orange and make a noise like a carrot.fresh_42 said:He chases it with his pack and shoots at it.He divides the forest into two, looks which part the rabbit is in. Then he divides this one into two, looks which part ...He catches a wild boar and beats it until it admits to be a rabbit.
(*) This is only culturally adapted. My version goes with german cops. No offense to the US. I just thought it fits better with an intelligence service and nobody knows BND.
