Laura and Daniel play with quadratic polynomials. First Laura says a nonzero real number $r$. Then Daniel says a nonzero real number $s$, and then again Laura says another nonzero real number $t$. Finally. Daniel writes the polynomial $P(x) = ax^2 + bx + c$ where $a,b$, and $c$ are $r,s$, and $t$ in some order Daniel chooses. Laura wins if the equation $P(x) = 0$ has two different real solutions, and Daniel wins otherwise. Determine who has a winning strategy and describe that strategy.

Let $q$ be a positive rational number. Two ants are initially at the same point $X$ in the plane. In the $n$-th minute $(n = 1,2,...)$ each of them chooses whether to walk due north, east, south or west and then walks the distance of $q^n$ metres. After a whole number of minutes, they are at the same point in the plane (not necessarily $X$), but have not taken exactly the same route within that time. Determine all possible values of $q$.
