I'd just see what footpath has the most footprints and I would take the opposite one  :)

Gotta love SBC with their 6Mbps tier for 45$
(Yes, on their site it only shows 3Mbps, but it is actually 6Mbps, I would know :)).

Here, i'll rephrase my explaination with the yes or no question instead

You would ask this:

*point to a door* (and lets just say its the door that leads to death) "If I asked the other guard if this was the door that leads to freedom, what would he say?"

So, if by chance you happen to ask the liar, this is what happens.  The liar KNOWS that the other guard (being the truthful one) will say no, but since the liar knows this, he will lie and say yes to you.

If by chance you happen to ask the truthful guard, this is what happens.  The truthful guard KNOWS that the liar would say yes (because he knows he would lie) so the truthful guard has to say yes because he is honest and just answering the question you asked.

With all this in mind, whether you ask the truthful guard or the honest guard, they will both have the same answer.  Therefore,  if the answer is yes, the door you pointed out is NOT the door to freedom.  If the answer is no, the door you pointed out IS the door to freedom.

Understand, kids?  :)

Yep, but my brain was fried after I figured out the answer or better yet me and my friend tried to figure it out. My friend caught on before me but then again I have the brain of a 64mhz machine   :)

A 64 mHz machine can still do calculations faster than a human could...

You're right, I have a real real real real real slow brain. It works very slow. Imagine trying to open tribes on that machine then you should get a mental picture.

Not true...

A Human COULD process data much faster than any computer ever could..


THat is, if we used 100% of our brain..

I'm not going to get into that now though.

I don't think any human alive right now can use 100% of their brain  :D

Ozzy uses about 98% of his brain...
Particle uses about 99% of his brain...
EVIL_INC uses about .99% of his brain.

eViL, you were probably the coolest but most misunderstood person in this community.. maybe the rest will find out how cool of a person you are some day, and don't get too mad at the people who dont understand you.. its their loss in the end.

Yeah Xiiar, $50 say you would have went through the wrong door then you would have just felt foolish but then again it is a 50/50 chance you could of picked the right door.

Oh and by the way nice signature. You're going to have to tell me that technique on how to make that wallpaper.

If humans could use 100% of their brains, no one would talk..  pure ESP communication.  Wouldn't that be neat?  You could also read peoples minds, and maybe even move things telepathically..

Of course the latter is only myth, but the idea is viable..

i hear that telekinesis is possible but it's rare that someone exactually has proof and then when you see proof it turns to be fake. i have somewhat a belief that it's possible that someone could have telekinesis. i might even learn it in my lifetime but what would be some of the things i would do with it. i know i will try to stop bullets like neo did in the matrix. that would be the first thing i would try once i figured out how to use it. that would be so tight to see.

I got this from Lain: Serial Experiment.


At this day of age, everyone is becoming connected through the wired (the internet).  A theory proposed many years ago was that brain waves can act accordingly into a network.  As humans have evolved, our intelligence has grown, and our brains now function very similarly to each other,  in brain waves, that is.  If all brain waves met at a certain frequency, the entire world would be in a network.  The thoughts of one would be the thoughts of many.

Have you ever noticed how identical twins can sometimes communicate with each other without saying anything?  Perhaps their brain waves act similar to this...

*edit*
I need to install a PC card slot into my brain so I can get all these 802.11 networks.
