    Apparently only people with an IQ over 120 are able to figure it out ...

    If:
    2 + 3 = 10
    7 + 2 = 63
    6 + 5 = 66
    8 + 4 = 96

    Then:
    9 + 7 = ????

    Yeah, I hear ya.

    When I received the e-mailed puzzle (from a friend), there was a secure xls attachment. The answer to this puzzle was the code to open that file. Kind of a creative way to let you know if you got it correct, I'd say. :)

    Yep sounds like the same way I received it. What I wonder is what is their rationale for showing that you have to have an IQ over 120 or whatever to solve it? Seems easy enough.
