I can't remember who said they could do it in 8 moves but they have removed their post - very suspicious ::) I think.  I've just done it 10 times in a row and can't get it below 15 moves!

Title: Re: Frog Leap Test
Post by: rustyme on July 28, 2009, 01:29:31 pm

i don't think it can be done in 8 Annie...mind you some clever ar*e will now prove me wrong  !!! ::) ;D ;D I have tried loads of different permutations , but theyall end up locked after only a few moves. 15, IS the number ....(I think ???)  ::)

Hi Annie,

Russ is quiet right and you of course!. When I read it at first I thought it said move TWO frogs from side to side but I was half asleep then. :dunce:
Now I am wide awake and have read it again I can assure you it does indeed take 15 moves. ::)
Sorry to have you thinking it could be done in 8.
Kindest regards
Joe :)

Hi Annie,

I am very sorry :-[.
I am willing to admit it was me, As I said I fell asleep on the sofa and read the instructions just after waking.
Any way at least it gave you something to do!!!. ;D
Kind regards
Joe

Parabens, BY THE WAY!.

What's parabens?

Title: Re: Frog Leap Test
Post by: sandy on July 28, 2009, 10:15:21 pm

Yes, what is parabens? I thought I should know so did not ask!!!

Title: Re: Frog Leap Test
Post by: doganjo on July 28, 2009, 11:16:56 pm

Parabens are a group of chemicals widely used as preservatives in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Parabens are effective preservatives in many types of formulas. These compounds, and their salts, are used primarily for their bacteriocidal and fungicidal properties. They can be found in shampoos, commercial moisturizers, shaving gels, personal lubricants, topical/parenteral pharmaceuticals, spray tanning solution and toothpaste. They are also used as food additives.

Their efficacy as preservatives, in combination with their low cost, their long history of safe use and the unproven efficacy of natural ingredients like grapefruit seed extract (GSE),[1] probably explains why parabens are so commonplace. They are becoming increasingly controversial, however, and some organizations which adhere to the precautionary principle object to their everyday use.[2]

What's the connection?
