Car Talk Puzzler
The following is this week's puzzler from the show Car Talk. The answer will be posted on the web site later on. I don't know the answer, but I thought someone here might. I make no promises that this in not a lame puzzle.
=============================================== This comes from Paul Mulick. He writes, "In the official police handbook for the Springfield Police Department, there are two pages printed in Hungarian. The rest of the book is in English. None of the men or women on the Springfield police force is Hungarian. In fact, not one person in the entire city of Springfield speaks or understands Hungarian. The question is, why does the official police manual include two pages in Hungarian. Here's a hint: the fact that no person in Springfield understands Hungarian is one of the reasons that Hungarian was chosen. Think you know why? http://cartalk.cars.com/Radio/Puzzle...341/index.html |

I would guess to provide an example of what it's like for illiterate people?
