 too many old chestnuts January 2, 2001

This book only has a handfull of good puzzles. Not surprisingly the best are about cars, that's what I expected from this book. What I don't like are the "filler" problems in the classic logic&math genre; seen too many of those around in countless puzzle books. The hokey photos and silly puns just don't make up for the lack of originality of the puzzles -sorry fellas. I hope the next book of cartalk puzzles will have more original puzzles.
