do not try this if you have work to do,

lets see how long it takes you to figure it out,
be honest, took me about 5 minutes and the guy who showed me took about 10 minutes

oh yea, dont post the answer if you figure it out :)

Got it.

Its not THAT easy, but its obvious once you get it...you need to be abstract about it.

IF you dont work it out, it doesnt mean your stupid....smart people always look at a problem in depth, using formulas, where as this problem isnt that sort of problem.

HINT: The name of the puzzle is a big clue on how to work the problem out.
