I just remember him showing us the answer and it required a huge proof to explain why it worked. :D
I believe the basic premise is you have to first ask a very specific "trick" question that will reveal 100% which answer means which, followed by another hypothetical along the lines of "If you were past, would you say yes to X?" and so on.
It's basically the classic 2 Guards and the doors to life and death, one who lies and one who always tells the truth turned up to 11. :P
I do like Shadami's Gordian Knot solution though.
Cold silence has a tendency
to atrophy any sense of compassion
between supposed lovers.
Between supposed brothers.
