Puzzle Contest Survey

After the recent successful Puzzle Contest in Puzzlaria, the contest committee decided to take a survey to see how well the residents liked the way the contest was organized. Knightmare, the head of the Puzzle Association, went out into the streets to personally interview people.

1. The van driver was interviewed right after Dual Aspect.

2. Eketahuna, who is a teacher, is older than Ross, who was an earlier interviewee.

3. The third person Knightmare interviewed is younger than the charity worker.

4. Solianar was interviewed sometime later than the post office worker, and sometime before the person aged 31.

5. Of the first four people interviewed, three of the ages were 20, 36, and 41.


Of the first four interviewees, can you tell the order in which they were questioned? ... the age of each? ... and each one's occupation?

Hey, I like the fountain of youth (my age dropped from 50 to 20 between two problems) but here I can't even legally drink the beer I had in the other problem!

Thats funny how the commentors names are used. And Zaux, I am not doubting you, but how do you know the answers to the questions? I am not trying to be mean, just curious. :)
