P.S. The topic just reminds me of how I once overheard a short guy approaching this REALLY tall guy during kiddush levana telling him, "You don't even need a siddur; you can just say it straight from the moon".

Was the short guy tripping on acid?
How do I even begin wrapping my mind around the twists of logic in that statement?

What's your question? Not particularly easy to figure out the answer, but their explanation is very straight forward. That riddle series on TED-Ed is great. Not sure why there was no 'pause to figure out the answer' for this one.

Close enough. I guess you're not much of a Batman fan.

Never heard this before, but ingenious!  The idea behind it is built on the others' knowledge. 

First stage:  I see what I see.

Second stage:  I gain info when the other did NOT act.
   (If the other person/people were sure of themselves they would have acted one way.  Each individual gains more understanding when they realize that the others did NOT act because they weren't sure.) 

Third stage:  I gain even more info when I realize that the other(s) also know what I know and how I will act.
   (Since each individual realizes that each of the other individuals realize the same thing, that is the clincher.   This allows each individual to gain the ultimate knowledge that he is green eyed.)

This is complicated and in a few stages so it really needs step by step which will have to wait until I choose to waste more time on this.  :D
Thanks for wasting my morning.  It was eye opening.
