You have 13 bottles of wine. One bottle contains a deadly poison. You have 4 lab rats. Which bottle is poison?
I misplaced this the first time around Original text:
For the annual Car Talk Banquet, Bugsy procures 13 bottles of wine. One bottle contains a deadly poison. With the help of four lab rats, how can they determine which one contains the fatal potion?
A sip of poison kills the rat
You have rats A, B, C, and D.
Rat A drinks wines 1 and 5 and 7 and 9 and 12
Rat B drinks wines 2 and 5 and 7 and 8 and 10 and 11
Rat C drinks wines 3 and 6 and 7 and 8 and 10 and 12
Rat D drinks wines 4 and 6 and 8 and 9 and 11
Death of rat(s) = poisoned bottle
A=1
B=2
C=3
D=4
AB=5
CD=6
ABC=7
BCD=8
AD=9
BC=10
BD=11
AC=12
NONE=13
You could also give all the rats 13, in which case ABCD=13. This way is more humane, and shows that you could actually figure it out even if there were 14 bottles. If the humans were expendable OH SWEET JESUS, you could figure out maybe which one contains the poison out of twenty bottles.

Annual Growth Cycle of Grapevines $62.13 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The annual growth cycle of grapevines is the process that takes place in the vineyard each year, beginning with bud break in the spring and culminating in leaf fall in autumn followed by winter dormancy. From a winemaking perspective, each step in the process plays a vital role in the development of grapes with ideal characteristics for making wine. Viticulturalists and vineyard managers monitor the effect of climate, vine disease and pests in facilitating or impeding the vines progression from bud break, flowering, fruit set, veraison, harvesting, leaf fall and dormancyreacting if need be with the use of viticultural practices like canopy management, irrigation, vine training and the use of agrochemicals. The stages of the annual growth cycle usually become observable within the first year of a vines life.

Table Wine $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Table wine is a wine term with two different meanings: a wine style; and a quality level within wine classification. In the United States, table wine primarily designates a wine style ordinary wine which is neither fortified nor sparkling. In the European Union wine regulations, table wine (TW) is the lower of two overall quality categories, the higher of which is Quality Wines Produced in Specified Regions (QWpsr). All levels of national wine classification systems within the EU correspond to either TW or the QWpsr, although the terms that actually appear on wine labels are defined by national wine laws with the EU regulations as a framework.
