The Brain Teaser Thread

[BluetoothBoy]

Here is where you post a short brain teaser to make people think and use their noodle. Just answer the above user's teaser, then post your own. It's even better if you come up with the brain teaser yourself; better still of you can explain your answer to the previous teaser. Here's one of mine to start us off.

Which is more environmentally friendly: riding the bus, or riding your bike?

riding your bike obviously - the effect is maximized if the rider in question bikes off a cliff so that his remains can decompose and be used by plants for minerals and other useful stuff.

Nope! The bus. It's already running anyway, and won't not run just because you don't ride it. However, you'll exhale more CO² if you ride you bike rather than the bus.
