Since this board is a BB and not real-time chat, I'll try to speed up the process a little; besides, it was something of a trick question. The most correct answer, at least according to my experience, is c) Either a or b. Anyone is free to dispute this, but please explain why I'm wrong (it certainly wouldn't be the first time).

You may have noticed that the "correct" actions required by these two answers are diametrically opposed. This being the case -- and unlike the previous question, I don't know the answer to this one -- how in the world do you distinguish when it is a) and when it is b)??? If you wonder as to my mindset on the state of play for this second part, just reference my signature quote. That pretty well sums it up. I do have one other I'll probably share in my next post. Looking forward to hearing from you (the collective "you").



HERE is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin...sometimes he feels that there really is another way [of coming downstairs], if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think of it.
