POSERS, PENALTIES, AND PROFITS
Sir,-In my opinion the lady who had to answer four questions wrongly won the fur coat. Having answered three questions wrongly (and there was no doubt about this), then she was asked: How many questions have you now had? She said three. If another question was coming that was correct, but if that in itself was to be taken as a question then to have answered correctly she should have said four. Thus three was in fact incorrect and so she should have won the fur coat.
