A man is walking and on his way to Bristol. He comes to a fork

in the road
where two brothers are standing. He is uncertain which path to

take to reach
Bristol, and needs help from one of them. The walking man has

heard of these
brothers, and knows that one always tells the truth, and the

other always
lies. The walking man is allowed to ask one question and one

question only.
He can direct the question to only one of the brothers, but he

does not know
which is the liar and which is always truthful. What question

does he ask?


you can't get to Bristol on the Frankford El
Cause the Frankford El
goes straight to Frankford
