• Question: You have one match, and are trapped in a cold dark room, you have an Oil lamp, a gas heater and a gas stove, which one do you light first? (All of them have to be lit)

      The gas stove – because that gives me an open flame, which enables me to light the other two (oil lamp and gas heater) too.

      Maybe the stove, as if it connected to the mains it would burn longer with a flame? Then, you could light the other two using the stove. Or run around and try to light all three with one match 🙂

      And; hope the match lights!
