You are driving alone on two-seater on a deserted road in blizzard conditions, when
you see a car which has recently run off the road and into a tree. There are three
people in the stranded car, none of whom is injured:
• an old friend, who once saved your life
• your childhood sweetheart…your lost love
• an elderly lady
No-one has a phone…. No chances of any more passing traffic…. People are not in a
condition to walk….. It is not possible to tow the crashed car….

Q. 3.
A philosophy professor gave an unusual test to his class. He lifted his chair onto his desk and wrote on
the board simply: "Prove that this chair does not exist." The class set to work, composing long complex
explanations - except one student, who took just thirty seconds to complete and hand in his paper,
attracting surprised glances from his classmates and the professor. What do you think the student must
have written as answer?
