Adventures in Liar and Truthteller Town (Part 1)
You’re so desperate to find a job, you’re even hunting in Liar and Truthteller Town. As the name implies, half the people always lie, and half the people always tell the truth, but outsiders cannot tell them apart by sight. You wait nervously in the reception room. An attractive, gossipy young lady next to you whispers she is sure that the previous applicant won’t get the job, because she heard him admit he was a Liar, and thus obviously unemployable. Then the interviewer calls you in. “I’m wearing a blue suit,” he says, and so he is, so he must be a Truthteller. “I need to test your logical reasoning skills for this position we have open. I will ask you one question, and this job depends on your answer. What can you tell me about the young lady you talked to outside?” Family Time
