I could have sworn that I posted something on this thread last night. Did it get deleted? Maybe it wasn't a riddle in the classic sense.
yeah someone deleted it, although i can still see it
I wouldn't have deleted it, it was still a riddle, just with a little more twist than people would expect, you blew their minds man!

If the nuts are in the bathtub, then it is the weight that determines how much water that is displaced. If the nuts are in the water, then it is a matter of 'density' of the material. As metal is more dense that water then for any given weight there is less volume. As such, the volume of the water decreases when the nuts are in the water...

The water level would fall.
until that is oxidisation of the metal nuts and bolts takes place in which case when they dissolve into the water does the level stay the same or what ?
Too many variables. typed it into computer
Weight is irrelevant
Density is irrelevant
My computr is overloading

I thought it was a damn good question! I'll find some nice B7 owner to explain it to me - or maybe no one is putting aftermarket stereos in their new cars.

pturbo your post is back up there. That's funny that you put it in this section ahaha it made me laugh


the answer is you dont. It looks so good as it is, putting something aftermarket in that interior would take away every sensibilty of precision and cleaness it has. It would ook terrible. Replacing speaers and adding subwoofers/etc is fine, but why would you want to change the interface thingy?

You are trapped in a room with 2 doors - one leads to hell and eternal damnation and the other leads to lots of virgins. In the room there are 2 computers in which you are only allowed to ask 1 question (total - not 1 to each computer). Now, the computers know which door leads where but the catch is that one of the computers always tells the truth and the other one always lies. What question do you ask?

I figured that was the answer and I'm cool with that as long as there is an in dash cd that plays all formats and you can add a changer of your choice. For teh interface to work, you probably have to get whatever one they tell you.

Sounds like recruiting for a suicide bomber.
