I was told the old “Sailors and the lost money” riddle a few years ago. I never could figure it out. Imagine my joy when finding Cecil figure it out for me. http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a910621.html
Great! I even printed it out to show my BF. The only problem is…I don’t quite understand how Cecil explained it.I get the general point, but I don’t understand how he got there. Anybody can explain it to me in more clear terms? Right now it’s about as clear as mud!
