I looked at the programming contest description for this event
<http://icpc.baylor.edu/icpc/> this year and realized that there is an
error in their problem description. Their first problem states that a
couple with A+ and B+ blood types can have a child with any blood
type. This is false if both parents have both alleles the same for
either type (AA or BB) or the Rh factor (++). I hope the students
noticed this error.

That reminds me of the SAT or ACT (or somesuch) many, many moons ago,
where a few students challenged (and eventually won against) a couple of
answers on the test. One asked, ~"If you have two triangular pyramids
(four sides each) and join them such that one side of one is in full
contact with one side of the other, how many faces are left exposed?
A) 2
B) 3
C) 6
D) 7
Your response was marked wrong if it was not D.
I don't recall what the other question was.
