Post 98% of the world population can't solve this; can you?

Now we were having a big debate about time travel at school weeks and weeks ago, and about the black hole, etc. and blah blah. Being me and my teacher were the only people who really knew what e=mc² meant. For you guys who don't know, e stands for energy, m stands for mass, and describes a very high number; which represents the speed of light.

Then on the class computer, I managed to find something about Albert Einstein describing the e=mc² thing.

Then one of the girls in our class asked her teacher if he knew Einstein's Riddle (which he didn't know I don't think), which 98% of population could not solve.

Here it is:

1. There are five houses.
2. The Englishman lives in the red house.
3. The Spaniard owns the dog.
4. Coffee is drunk in the green house.
5. The Ukrainian drinks tea.
6. The green house is immediately to the right of the ivory house.
7. The Old Gold smoker owns snails.
8. Kools are smoked in the yellow house.
9. Milk is drunk in the middle house.
10. The Norwegian lives in the first house.
11. The man who smokes Chesterfields lives in the house next to the man with the fox.
12. Kools are smoked in the house next to the house where the horse is kept.
13. The Lucky Strike smoker drinks orange juice.
14. The Japanese smokes Parliaments.
15. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
16. Now, who drinks water? Who owns the zebra?

In the interest of clarity, it must be added that each of the five houses is painted a different color, and their inhabitants are of different national extractions, own different pets, drink different beverages and smoke different brands of American cigarettes. One other thing: In statement 6, right means your right.

Now I've seen the answers but I can't remember them and it doesn't mean I know how to figure it out either.

Please do not look at the answers on the Net and crap.

Do your best!

I suck...

Chris
