It could be 'no' and 'yes' simultaneously.

it's yes and no, untill you open the box and find out if AndyW is alive or dead

Is this 'diagram' SFW?

Is this 'diagram' SFW?

Yes - a married man can see an unmarried

Jack -> Anne -> AW



No - a married man can NOT see an unmarried

AW Jack -> <-Anne

[RichardCranium]

Bum.

How do I change my answer?

[realityhack]

EO - you're making an assumption too far with married man... it says person. I was assuming they were all facing in the same direction, in a line.

Jack > Anne > AndyW

If Jack=Married and AndyW=Unmarried, and Anne=Either Married or unmarried, then:

If Anne=Married:
J(M) > A(M) > AW (U)

Anne is looking at AndyW, so a married person is looking at an unmarried person.

If Anne=Unmarried:
J(M) > A(U) > AW (U)

Jack is looking at Anne, so, again, a married person is looking at an unmarried person.

Only if the question is about cats.
