Life is like a Piano

It's that time of year to take our annual senior
citizen test.
Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of
the muscles.

As we grow older, it's important to keep mentally
alert.

If you don't use it, you lose it!

Below is a very private way to gauge your loss or
non-loss of
intelligence.

Take the test presented here to determine if you're
losing it or not.

The spaces below are so you don't see the answers
until you've made your answer.

OK, relax, clear your mind and begin.

4. It's twenty years ago and a plane is flying at
20,000 feet
over Germany - (If you will recall, Germany at the
time was politically
divided into West Germany and East Germany .)

Anyway, during the flight, TWO engines fail.

The pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine
is also failing, decides on a crash landing procedure.
Unfortunately the engine fails before he can do so and the plane
fatally crashes smack in the middle of "no man's land" between East
Germany and West Germany .

Where would you bury the survivors --- East Germany, West Germany ,
or no man's land"?
