--- Quote from: Jsk2003 on May 21, 2009, 05:12:27 PM ---Ask Man1 what Man2 will say if you ask what is the right path.
If Man1 is the truthful one, then he will tell you what the liar will say, which would be the wrong path.
Ask Man2 what Man1 will say if you ask what is the right path.
The liar will LIE about what the truth guy will say, thus he will also respond with the wrong path.
Go the way of the path that they did not go to.
