Maybe I should just change all of the questions to math questions. That way there are no "difficult" questions.

You are probably right. However, I just went to sign up at the Debian Forums and one of the questions there is this math question:

012345
what is the middle number?

Math is not my weak point, but there are obviously different kinds of math and that was one with which I was unfamiliar. Anyway it had me stumped and I scratched my head for a while before I made a random choice which it accepted.

My favourite trick question is: "what weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of gold?"
The answer, of course, is a pound of feathers is heavier because there are 16 ounces to an avoirdupois pound and only 12 ounces in troy which is what we use for gold.

How about asking them to type the nice silvery word that starts with k at the top of the page only leave off the last two letters?

Otherwise I think this guy is sitting on his throne with the fan running full blast and reading this on a netbook and giggling a lot.

Actually, Google will do math calculations for you. Try it. In a Google search URL type:

(2+3)*3=

and press Enter.

you have that backwards, you can do them in krunner like this
= (2+3)*3

although u do need to enable the calc plugin.
