Below is a quiz written by Albert Einstein. He said 98% of
the people in the world cannot solve the quiz. Are you among the 2%? FACTS: 1. There are 5 houses (in a row) in 5 different colours. 2. In each house lives a person with a different nationality. 3. These 5 owners drink a certain beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar and keep a certain pet. 4. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or drink the same drink. HINTS: 1. The Brit lives in a red house. 2. The Swede keeps dogs as pets. 3. The Dane drinks tea. 4. The green house is on the immediate left of the white house. 5. The green house owner drinks coffee. 6. The person who smokes Pall Mall cigars rears birds. 7. The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill cigars. 8. The man living in the house right in the center drinks milk. 9. The Norwegian lives in the first house. 10. The man who smokes Blend cigars lives next to the cat owner. 11. The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill. 12. The man who smokes Blue Master cigars drinks beer. 13. The German smokes Prince cigars. 14. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house. 15. The man who smokes Blend cigars has a neighbor who drinks water. The QUESTION IS .... who has a fish as a pet?

Very hard quiz. I'm working on it right now but i still have nothing. Btw can you tell me where you got this quiz? If you want to answer it the obvious choice is to make a logical grid except the hard part is that there are 5 variables (cigar, drink, house, nationality, and pet) If anyone has an answer to this problem please post it. And tell me how you got it too.
