if the barber in the village only shaves the men who dont shave themselves,does he shave himself
Check http://plus.maths.org/issue20/xfile/ for a discussion of the barber paradox.
What? Everyone in the village is shaved? Nonsense… a few of 'em must have beards.
The answer is: he picked the barber with the bad haircut because ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO CUT YOUR OWN HAIR!
Tricky one, that.
My solution is the barber is a woman.
