Start with four beads placed at the corners of a square. You are allowed to move a bead from position x to position y if one of the other three beads is at position (x+y)/2. In other words, you may `reflect a bead with respect to another bead.' Find a sequence of such moves that places the beads at the corners of a bigger square, or show that the task is impossible.
