Bug Description

the random question "How many ears does the average human have?" will not accept any answer except "2". I've not got any figures at hand but there are a certain number of humans with one or no ears so unless there is equal number with three ears to balance them out I doubt very much the average is exactly two.

It's the security question when you go to register, right?

I don't see the problem.

The question is how many ears does the *AVERAGE* human have? Your initial report makes it clear that you're aware that the majority of people have 2 ears. This would constitute the 'average human' part.
If the question was "on average, how many ears does a human have?" then your point would stand and we would reword the question.

As it stands, the answer to the question is right, and I see no need for anything to be changed.
