here is a favorite of mine

You are rushing your mother to the hospital

There is a fork in the road and you dont remember which way to go

There are two twin brothers there, one who always lies and one who always tells the truth. They look identical, and it is impossible to tell them apart

You only have time to ask one brother one question. And again, the one who answers you have no idea if he is the one who lies or tells the truth

What one question can you ask so that no matter which brother answers, you will know which way to go to save your mother

Answer: <font color="white"> "If I asked your brother which way is it to the hospital, what would he say?" Then go in the other direction. </font>

[/ QUOTE ] Or:<font color="white"> There is an alternative answer. Ask one of them "If I were to ask you which way to go, what would you say?" Then go the way he says. </font>
