Speaking of engineers.. I once handed a device to an Engineer from Motorola.. It is a small box, called Alcratraz, Made in Detroit, Inside the box which has a plastic top and bottom and 4 metal posts that seperate them is a steel ball bearing, the trick is to remove the ball from the box without use of force. It is a trick, not a puzzle. (Ask if you need to know the difference).

Well they must have spent several thousand dollars worth of talent and time trying to figure it out, They tried heat, cold, just about everything save X-Ray.. X-Ray,,,, would have gotten it.
