Ok, I'm still compiling a list of questions for a later compilation within different sections here on the forums. I thought that I might get you all a little warmed up.
I know that the Subject states "Trivia" but this is more of a brain teaser. I feel that brain teasers coupled with general trivia (food, movies, etc) is a good match for the Off-Topic section.
So here it goes:
Situation: It's 11pm in upstate New York. You are inside of a house, in the foyer, on the ground level. To your right there is a set of stairs going up. To your left is a set of three (3) light switches. Each switch controls only one (1) light. All of the switches control different lights. All three (3) lights are located in the same room up the stairs (the same set of stairs to your right), and all the way down the hall. The room in which the lights are located is behind a closed door and not visible from the bottom of the steps. The room also contains no windows. There is a disposable camera by your feet, about an inch away from the steps.
Your goal: You must find out which light switch controls which light.
Stipulations: The stipulations are follows:
1) You MAY ONLY travel up the stairs one (1) time.
2) You are the LAST person on Earth and there are no such things as cell phones
3) You must do this on your own
Please use this thread as an open discussion for your answer(s).
I am at the airport about to hop on a plane...hopefully some of you will have it by the time the flight is over.
GOOD LUCK!
