This is a quiz written by Einstein last century. He said that 98% of the
people in the world cannot solve the quiz (doesn\'t say how long you have
though). Are you among the other 2%?

Facts:
1. There are 5 houses in 5 different colours
2. In each house lives a person with a different nationality
3. These 5 owners drink a certain beverage, smoke a certain brand of
cigar and keep a certain pet.
4. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar or drink
the same drink.

Hints:
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 centre drinks milk
9. The Norwegian lives in the first house
10. The man who smokes Blend lives next to the one who keeps cats
11. The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill
12. The owner who smokes Blue Master drinks beer
13. The German smokes Prince
14. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house
15. The man who smokes Blend has a neighbour who drinks water.

The question is.... WHO KEEPS FISH?
It is not a trick question, it is a process of elimination. Good luck!!

This is old info, people are more educated thus can solve logical problems
better. Nowadays much more than 2% can solve this.
