"Dear Die Hard, You Rock! Especially when that guy was on the roof. P.S. Do you know Mad Max?"

Do you remember in Die Hard with a Vengeance, where they have to disarm the bomb by filling up a jug with "Exactly 4 gallons"? I have a question for the guy who thought up that scene: WTF?!?!?!!?!

Its an old riddle. All they did was put it into the film.

And that riddle is even simple...
Mad Max rocks.
Fill 5
5 -> 3
Empty 3
5 -> 3
Fill 5
5 -> 3
Voilà, there's 4 gallons in your 5er

Well, I got that one, just that damn 4 gallon one that stumped me. Thanks Alamo, I'm not a good mathematician.
