This Week's NPR Weekend Edition Sunday Puzzle

Ok, then punch some random number into your calculator and have each passenger
add in his/her weight on that.


....and do it two or three times with different numbers to assure yourself that
nobody ELSE made errors. I've watched too many people do math and science,
with and without calculators, to trust such results. In calculating the speed
of a baseball (starting with reasonable assumptions) I've seen a lot of
students put down "0.024121331 mph" because that's what the calculator said.

If there's a W&B to be done, it will be ME that does it. I mever nake
mistakes.
