Abstract: My favorite DE problem. Its beauty is in its simplicity! "Snow starts to fall before noon and falls at a constant rate all day. At noon, a snowplow starts to clear a road. The velocity of the snowplow is such that it removes snow at a constant rate. The plow goes 1 mile during the first hour and one-half mile during the second hour. What time did it start to snow?"
