In a given country, all inhabitants are knights or knaves. A knight never lies; a knave always lies. We meet three persons, $A, B$, and $C$. Person $A$ says, “If $C$ is a knight, $B$ is a knave.” Person $C$ says, “$A$ and I are different; one is a knight and the other is a knave.” Who are the knights, and who are the knaves ?

Values for $A,B,C,$ and $D$ are to be selected from $\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\}$ without replacement (i.e. no two letters have the same value). How many ways are there to make such choices so that the two curves $y=Ax^2+B$ and $y=Cx^2+D$ intersect? (The order in which the curves are listed does not matter; for example, the choices $A=3, B=2, C=4, D=1$ is considered the same as the choices $A=4, B=1, C=3, D=2.$) $\textbf{(A) }30 \qquad \textbf{(B) }60 \qquad \textbf{(C) }90 \qquad \textbf{(D) }180 \qquad \textbf{(E) }360$
