The not-always-lying politician (Posted on 2004-02-27) Difficulty: 3 of 5
There happens to be a politician that might lie at any moment (this isn't unusual) but his conscience bothers him enough (now, that is unusual!) so he won't say two lies in a row.

He said ten consecutive statements.

How many combinations of truths/lies can there be?

"(known to history by his nickname, Fibonacci )" which means "Bonacci's son" and seems to me to be less of a nickname than just an identifier. See

for an excellent rundown on the guy.
