I found the problem easy -- solved it in a yoctosecond. What do I think? I think it's appropriate for a middle school qualification test. (At first I thought, like Bernie, that the problem contradicted itself, that the mislabeled diagram couldn't be to scale. But that's wrong: the diagram represents the *cities* to scale. Nowhere does it claim to accurately depict all four distance labels.) --Dan
