How to improve your intellect and how to zap it
Every month the folks at the IBM research center put together a little logical puzzle [1] for folks to solve. If you are one of the first 100 to solve it, you get your name in lights on the web site. Just the thing for wakening a few brain cells. Once you’ve woken those cells, put them to sleep again with these Zen Koans [2]. Koans are short stories or puzzles that cannot be understood or solved from a logical perspective. They are designed to defeat or quell rational thinking in order to free the mind. The classic example is, "what is the sound of one hand clapping."
