Marvelous! Thank you! I remember having an epiphany walking home from class one summer afternoon when I was suddenly struck by the solution to the riddle about the porridge bird.
The operative word in the riddle is, "HIS egg..."
The answer to the riddle is, male porridge birds don't lay eggs. The logic bomb of the question is what crashed the President.
At least that's my interpretation.
I've always revered Firesign for their old time radio studio techniques and surrealist humor. Brilliant stuff.
