One more example of poor mathematical abilities of Americans…
Last week I rented a movie at Blockbuster – on the bottom of the receipt it said: “Rent three (3) more movies till February 28, 2005 and earn a free rental .”
Yesterday we rented TWO more movies. And what do you think the bottom of the receipt said? “Rent two (2) more movies…”
Hmmm….I always thought 3 minus 2 equals one…Not here, I guess…
