    What is greater than God,
    more evil than the devil,
    the rich want it,
    the poor have it,
    and if you eat this you will die?

    "NOTHING" is correct!:)

    what happened in 1961 that won't happen again for over another 4000 years?

    Could it be a planetary alignment?

    the word happened is a bit confusing nothing happened but there is
    something unusual about 1961 that will not be repeated for over
    another 4000 years

    puzzle: "How quickly can you find out what is unusual about this paragraph? It looks so ordinary that you would think that nothing was wrong with it at all, and in fact, nothing is. But it is unusual. Why? If you study it and think about it you may find out, but I am not going to assist you in any way. You must do it without coaching. No doubt if you work at it for long, it will dawn on you. I don't know. Now, go to work and try your luck."

    turn on switch 1 for a few minutes then turn it off. turn on switch 2.

    go into the room. if the light is on, its switch 2. if its off but warm, its switch 1. and if its off but cold, its the third switch.
