Kada smo već kod bića koja postavljaju pitalice. U jednom forumu pitanje u tekstu ispod je postavljeno. Autor pitanja mi je rekao da je osnovna svrha pitanja bila da se ilustrira nemogućnost da uopće postoji tako nešto kao knjiga sa univerzalinm znanjem o svemu jer bavljenje pojmom beskonačnosti nužno završava u slijepoj ulici nekog paradoksa. Neovisno o tome ja sam došao do skupa pitanja.

Što bi ste vi upitali?

An alien spaceship flies into your living room and lands on the coffeetable (hey, does size really matter). You look inside, and find a beautiful gold-bound book entitled "The Universal Book of Knowledge of Everything". Complete with instructions.

The book has the answers to every single question that could ever be asked in the entire lifetime of the universe. The instructions invite you to ask any question at all, but you can only ask one question, and the book will provide the answer. So....

*What is the One Thing in life you do not know, that you would like to know; what would be your one question?


Now that you have asked your Great Question and received ypur answer at last, the book's instruction sheet informs you that it only got to Know Everything by asking its own questions. So the book has a question for you:

*What is The One Thing You Know For Sure?

Upon absorbing your generous new revelation of knowledge, the Book is feeling generous. You notice another slip of paper attached behind the first instruction sheet. It says:

*Go ahead, ask The Book a bonus question about anything at all.

So now, what do you ask the Book for your bonus question?
