Hey, made you look!
Now that I have your attention... here's this week's puzzler...
Woods used in woodworking come in two general varieties: hardwoods and softwoods. There are considerable differences between the two types, but not necessarily the differences that one might think. Herein lies the riddle: Why are they named as such if hardwoods aren't necessarily harder than softwoods, and softwoods aren't necessarily softer than hardwoods.
The weasels are patiently awaiting the answer to this one....
