Well, the string could burn 99% in 2 minutes and then 58 minutes for the rest. But let's say that doesn't happen.
And yes, the two strings are the same. They both burn in 1 hour.
There is a way to isolate 15 minutes IN TIME, meaning you can't count in your head, just watch etc....it's not that simple, would not be really interesting.
Come on wolves not that hard.

Re: Go!
Cut one string in half. You now got 2 seperate smaller strings, burn all the 4 ends and wait till both small strings are gone. Boomshakkalakka!
EDIT: Ah damn, let me think.
EDIT: Take one string and burn its two ends. Burn only one end of the other string. Now wait until the first string is fully gone (30 minutes have passed) and burn the other end of the second string. From that moment you burn the second end until the second string is also gone = 15 minutes. Or?

Mary's father has 5 children: 1:nana, 2:nene, 3:nini, 4:nono. What is the name of the 5th child?
While exploring the wild highlands of Ireland, Robert was captured by goblins. Grumpy, the chief of the goblins told him he was allowed one final statement on which would hinge how he would die. If the statement he made was false, he would be boiled in water. If the statement were true, he would be fried in oil. Sine Robert did not like either option, so he made a statement that forced the goblins to release him. What is the one statement he could make to save himself?

"I will be boiled in water."
