The Three Friends (Posted on 2003-04-29) Difficulty: 3 of 5
I give you a group of three.

One is sitting down and will never get up.

The second eats as much as is given to him, yet is always hungry.

The third goes away and never returns.

What are they?

Question Maybe... | Comment 3 of 27 |
Though I like your idea for mind (and that might be the answer), I take in "eat" as meaning used, and used up. For example, if you eat a cookie, nobody else can eat that cookie that you ate. I think that your knowing a fact doesn't stop someone else from knowing it as well.

My question would be are these three related? Or is it just problem compresion?
