[imperium2600]

Einstein wrote this quiz last century. He said that 98% of the people in the world cannot solve the quiz.

* There are 5 houses in 5 different colors
* In each house lives a person with a different nationality
* These 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet
* No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar or drink the same drink.

Here's the question: Who owns the fish?

1. The Brit lives in a red house
2. The Swede keeps dogs as pets
3. The Dane drinks tea
4. The green house is on the left of the white house
5. The green house owner drinks coffee
6. The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds
7. The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill
8. The man living in the house right in the middle drinks milk
9. The Norwegian lives in the first house
10. The man who smokes Blend lives next door to the one who keeps cats.

12. The owner who smokes Blue Master drinks beer
13. The German smokes Prince

I can assure you that this quiz is not simply a matter of intelligence or quick thinking. It requires logical reasoning and careful analysis of the given information. It may seem easy to some, but that is likely because they have a strong aptitude for solving puzzles and problems. Einstein himself estimated that only 2% of the population would be able to solve this quiz, which speaks to its level of difficulty. It is important to remember that intelligence comes in many forms and solving this quiz does not necessarily reflect one's overall intelligence.
