Kevin Wald solved the puzzle in 30 minutes.
Gerald Hurtubise sent the following along with his solution:
"In a mating ritual, 3 newlywed native couples went to their tepees...
one couple made love on a bear skin, and soon had a son
another couple made love on a deer skin and also had a son
but the third couple made love on a hippopotamus skin and had twin sons... so
"the sons of the squaw on the hide of the hippopotamus is equal to the sons of the squaws on the other two hides!"
Should I strike his name from the list?
