-=Today's Puzzle:
Of Annette, Bernice, and Cynthia:
1) Each belongs either to the Tee family whose members always
tell the truth or to the El family whose members always lie.
2) Annette says "Either I belong or Bernice belongs to a different
family from the other two."
Whose family do you know the name of?*
-=Yesterday's Answer:
Vera's Preference - From 1) exactly one of Adam, Boyd, Cary, and
Dirk has none of the preferred traits; exactly one of Adam, Boyd,
Cary, and Dirk has all of the preferred traits.
So, from 4) and 5): either Adam and Cary are both tall and Boyd
and Dirk are both fair; or Adam and Cary are both short and Boyd
and Dirk are both dark. From 2) the second statement is true.
Then, from 3), Boyd is short and handsome. Then, Dirk is short
and unhandsome. Then from 2), Adam is fair. Then Cary is dark and
handsome. So, Cary is tall, dark, and handsome.
