--- Quote ---An Indian bride has walked out of her wedding after her bridegroom-to-be failed to solve a simple maths problem, according to police in Uttar Pradesh.

The bride asked the groom to add 15 and six. When he replied 17, she called off the marriage.

Last month, another bride in Uttar Pradesh married a guest at her wedding after her groom-to-be had a seizure and collapsed.

Don't know about other parts but power was off here earlier, came back on around 14:00 (if I recall)... then went off again at 17:00 for ten minutes or so. Hey ho!
