there has been alot of work on showing that at least a certain percent of zeros must lie on the line. I think we're up to around 90%. It is unclear to me as to whether or not a proof can be found in this way. My guess is no

The answer is simply "no".\nThat's why kindergarteners can answer it...\nLook here: http://teensetc.com/0F/0D/BI/index.shtml\n\nAlthough the riddle originally was based on a poem about time, there were errors in it that make it impossible to be answered with "time".\n\nThe last part of the riddle, "If you squeeze me, I'll pop.\nIf you look at me, you'll pop." is actually from an old riddle which had the answer "bubble". (if you squeeze it it will pop, if you look at it you see your reflection and you pop.)\n\nAnd the answer "pressure" came from a kid or someone who knew nothing at all about why it is cold at the north pole or why polar bears appear white.

The rest of the world wonders why only 40 - 55% turned out to the polls. And who is the other half?

The correct answer is "NO"\n(That's why kindergarten students can answer it.)\nThe last line of the riddle should read, "Can you guess the correct answer?"

that is a good arithmatic question which many people get wrong. the answer would have to be 2

I haven't been able to find any exact numbers, but since you asked for fraction, it's about 1/3 or about 2 billion people.

In a just world, yes.  But you'd have a larger question if you considered our world just.\n\nGood question~~

The average IQ of all the races together? that doesn't make sense, if the asians, that are most of the world have a 20% higher IQ...

i'd say yes. in most of the world and in the US before the 60's, 50%+ of the population smoked. since there are more people outside of the US than in the US, I would say that there are more geniuses smoking than not.

this riddle is missing the last and most important part, the question. it ends with "can you answer this riddle?" The answer i believe, is simply "No." like someone else said before, most riddles end with "what am i?" or "who am i" not with "can you guess the riddle?" this riddle also says at the end that 97% of harvard students couldnt get the right answer, and 80% of kindergaden students could. that is because a harvard student would just keep on trying to find the answer, while a kindergarden would just give up and say no, a kindergarden kid would probably say "No, i dont know, what is it?" because they're curious to know, and they want to know right away. it also has to do with pride, a harvard student or any adult wouldnt want to just give up, they would think to death before saying "no, i dont know the answer." Simple eh? just go ask a 5 year old, and then say "can you answer the riddle?" and he will just say "No."

no, only a few people are smart. Most of us did not discover anything new, though of anything new. We just learn whatever ppl thought up and most of us couldn't even follow the ideas becoz we are not able to think logically.

^ That isn't the only link one could find to this riddle.\n\nWhy has it been posted like 25 times in the last week?\n\nOk I previously stated that I felt the best answer was "pressure" but I am retracting that.\n\nIf you look at the riddle, the only part that actually states a question is the last line which reads "Can you guess the riddle?"  I would bet that Kindergarten students would just be like "ha... no!" while Harvard students would be driven nuts.\n\n And well, NO is the correct answer.  \n\nSo what is the rest of the riddle there for?  Well probably because its a riddle and that is the superfluous information.
