Ok this is how i see it. The man just left hospital after having an operation to prevent him from going blind. The hankerchiff was around his eyes. He somehow knew the train was speeding and he knew it was eventually going to crash. Being isolated he couldn't talk to any one about it. He eventually syked himself up to jump because he didn't want to be crushed in the crash. But this dosn't seem right to me why did he take the blindfold off. Hum will think about it more today. |

| Ooh, howbout this... he had the operation to prevent him from going blind and the handkerchief was around his eyes... he was in the train, and after however many hours he could take the handkerchief off, so he did.... right when the train was in a tunnel, which made it dark.. so he thought he had gone blind anyway and didn't want to live with that. I know a couple of these, so if there's ever a shortage I'll throw one into the field  (edited by Jagori on 04-18-04 04:13 AM) |

Good...  _____Score_____ NSNick - 9 Jagori - 6 Felix - 4 Edsgravy0 - 1 _______________ Puzzle 8 (2 points) Water and Wine. There are two glasses on the table, one contains water, and the other contains wine. Both have the same volume. If you take a teaspoon of water and mix it with the wine, then you take a teaspoon of wine and mix it with the water, both glasses are contaminated. But which is the more contaminated? Does the water glass have more wine than the wine glass has water, or the other way around? (edited by Kirby all the way on 04-18-04 10:13 PM) (edited by Kirby all the way on 04-20-04 10:21 PM) |
