how is it a memory and not a song? memories dont last a lifetime necessarily
songs don't go away after your life ends. We know nothing about what happens to a persons memory. plus does a song do the rest of those things?


As a matter of fact if you need something easier try this....

What has a tongue, cannot walk, but gets around a lot?


DO not look the answer up and be a cheater.

:upsetfavre:

What can bring back the dead; make us cry, make us laugh, make us young; born in an instant yet lasts a life time?

Few memories last a complete life time, assuming you live to a very old age...and many go away even if you live a short life.

And yea, a song does. It brings back the dead in a realer way than a memory does (by a deceased artist), they make people cry and laugh, can make people feel young again after hearing a song from earlier in their life, can be created relatively fast (and, at the very least, is "born in an instant" if you look at it from the perspective of a person listening to it for the first time), and it lasts a life time.

You said yourself that songs don't go away after your life ends...since when does that mean it doesn't last your life time, if it lasts your life time and beyond it?

EDIT TO ADD:

Artwork and writing could also apply, I suppose.

You entered in the possibility of a robot guessing what the other will say given that there will be no opportunity for the other robot to respond.
No I didn't, here's what Brown Pride said :
I didn't make it clear but yeah they each know not only what door is what door but also what robot is what robot...
Therefore the liar robot knows the other one tells the truth and the truthteller knows the other one is a liar.
So that means they don't guess they know that in a simple yes or no question, the liar will always point to the wrong door whether he does it answering the question directly or when the truthteller will reply to what he will say.

What's the answer? C right?
C) We don't know Annes status
Nope. It's "yes".

If Anne is married than she's looking at George who's not married. If she isn't then Jack is looking at her and he's married so in every case, somebody married is looking at somebody not married.
