How I got there is difficult to explain ha. Easiest to explain is another way, try each one in turn and see if it works.Originally Posted by Kite
a) Farmer Larry claims that Farmer Russell is a liar.
b) Farmer John claims that Farmer Larry is a liar.
c) Farmer Russell claims that both Farmer John and Farmer Larry are liars.
So if we 1st assume John is telling the truth then Russell and Larry must be lying. However, statement a) says that Larry calls Russell a liar. Either Larry is telling the truth or Russell is. So this doesn't work.
Next assume Russell is telling the truth so John and Larry are lying. Statement a) is fine, that's a lie but it's from Larry who is a liar. However, statement b) says that John calls Larry a liar. Again, either Larry is telling the truth or John is. So this doesn't work.
Finally, the proof, assume Larry is telling the truth so Russell and John are lying. Statement b) is fine, it's a lie from John who is a liar. Statement a) is fine, Larry is our truthteller. And statement c) is from Russell a liar and he lies by saying that both John and Larry are liars.
So Larry is telling the truth

Thanks
thank you!
Let's start a discussion on the new LC...
I think it should be something more nonsensical than an actual item.
There's not really much to discuss, it said:
"Wallace spent the next hour running around, unable to sit still. He continued on into the night without sleeping or eating. Poor Wallace!
What did Wallace catch?"
And the description of Jitters is:
"If you notice that your pet runs around constantly and just can't seem to sit still to sleep, eat or do anything it might have this disease."
Pretty clear cut.
