Bonus point to you for that detail.

This is a most unusual paragraph. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think nothing was wrong with it - and in fact, nothing is wrong with it. It is unusual though. Why? Study it, think about it, and you may find out. Try to do it without coaching. If you work at it for a bit it will dawn on you. So jump to it and try your skill at figuring it out. Good luck - don't blow your cool!"


__________
The paragraph never once uses the letter "e", the most commonly used letter in the english language.

Missing the letter E, none of the words use it, and it is such a common word...

There are two airplanes heading straight toward each other.

One plane is travelling at 15 kilometres per minute, and the other is travelling at 10 kilometres per minute.

Assuming that the planes are exactly 1000 kilometres apart, what distance will be between them one minute before they meet?


__________
It will be 25 Km, the total value of their combined speeds per minute.

10 km + 15 km = 25 km.

That's easy... ;)

P.S. It will take 39 minutes, the faster plane will travel 585k, the slower 390.
