In the Tour de France, what is the position of a rider after he has passed the second placed rider? Take the letters ERGRO. Put three letters in front of it, and the same three letters behind to make a common English word The following number has a special characteristic, what makes it unique? 8,549,176,320 Would you rather a crocodile attack you or an alligator?
