I don't know how it is supposed to work, with false being misspelled. Unless that is what you are trying to see, how many people will catch the error.

Okay I have been pondering this for some time now, it just doesn't seem to make sense.

I guess my little pea brain isn't mechanically inclined enough to get it either. You'll have to explain it to me...I'm with mechanic on this one..Duh?

Seems like some kind af weird circular logic.

How long do we have to wait for the right answer, bodrul? Or are you going to give ample time for more (possibly) astute members to chime in?

I'm going on vacation tomorrow...maybe there will be an answer when I get back See you in a couple of weeks, unless an answer comes before the end of today

Okay, how about this. I googled those two sentences.

I know I cheated, sue me.

soler7.com...

My goodness Mechanic How can I possibly read that and stay focused enough to figure it out, with all the other hundreds of things on my mind??

This is not a game for me :shk: I'm out, this is a man's game!

There's more than one statement in between!

That's the only time this could be accurate.

It just goes round in circles, there is no true answer.

The following statement is false means that The previous statement is also false which means the following statement is actually true but now that means the previous statement is also true and now the following statement would now be false and so on and so on...

Its just one of those things you stare at for a while and then you feel like your brain is going to short out, eh?

Wow, Mechanic- that explanation made my head hurt. But no more than bouncing those two sentences back and forth in my head like a tennis ball, trying to figure it out. I think Jen is right. This needs the logical thinking of the male brain instead of the intuitive female brain.OUCH!:bash::bnghd:
