Alright, this seems pretty interesting. Ive read it twice and I might give this a go later this evening, or tomorrow. If you figure it out, try to keep it to yourself until others have an opportunity to try to solve it.

Thanks.

It is often called "Einstein's Puzzle" or "Einstein's Riddle" because it is said to have been invented by Albert Einstein as a boy, with the common claim that Einstein said "only 2 percent of the world's population can solve this". It is also sometimes attributed to Lewis Carroll. However, there is no known evidence for Einstein's or Carroll's authorship.

btw the original puzzle is diffferent.... its who drinks water and who owns a zebra...

for more details see....**SPOILER WARNING**
