First, why did you give us the answer? There's no riddle here at all. Second, what on earth is this doing in the hard section?

If you simply want to discuss a riddle, general seems a better place. So I moved it here..

I don't see why you didn't post it as a riddle though. It might have taken people a while to get it. Or you could have hidden the answer, so people can have at least a chance to think before their eyes fall on it.

I guess we should discuss what would have author done to the question to get the intended discussion turnover ::)
