A similar riddle I have heard was supposedly answered by 80% of
kindergarten classes, but only by 17% of University students:
What is greater than god
More evil than the devil
The rich need it
The poor have it
If you eat it you will die?
Note: This is NOT intended to spawn a religious discussion! Just
more food for thought, so to speak, about how adults "think too
hard".
