[AccessD] OT- Ftiday Humor (Einstein Quiz)

Well JC, I got it right, but not truly using logic -- I guess it is a form
of logic, but not in the sense we've come to think of logic -- as "deducing"
a conclusion from facts. I won't tell you the key I used, unless you really
get stuck -- but frankly -- I think it's kind of like if a rooster lays an
egg on top of the barn, which way does it fall? ;)
