General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much.

Sorry for the delay my mother board shorted out. The answer is 0. Polar bears live in the Arctic and Penguins live in the Antarctic.

You are correct tech girl.

Okay Then - this question caused quite a stir a few years back.

Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors: Behind one door is a car; behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a goat. He then says to you, "Do you want to pick door No. 2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice?

That was the original question. I also want to know what the odds are that the auto is behind door no 2.

Hint - yes you should switch - why?

Ahhh the good old Monty Hall problem.

I believe you do. Still pretty cool though. Not what you would think. If no one answers it go ahead. In awhile I'll post the link so people can read the solution.

okay origonally there was a 33% chance that the auto was behind the door that you picked. After the goats where shown to be behind door #3 Then the odds now go to 50-50 it would not increase your chance of winning if you changed your pick.
