There is a sealed room with no windows and you can't see in from the outside. Inside there is one light but outside there are three switches. You can only switch two of the switches and can only go into the room once....how can you tell which switch is the correct one?

You switch a switch on for a few mins, then switch it off, then switch another and walk in -- you can tell by the heat of the bulb if the bulb's still off... If it's now on, you know it was the second switch, and if it's off and cold, you know it's the third switch...

something to do with switching on one switch then turning it off, then switching another and going in and touching the bulb to see if its warm or not.

Off and cold is first switch, off and warm is second switch, on will be third.

or something like that

Dave's obviously read Tim's post, then re-posted it, making out like he never saw Tim's post, then we'd think he's brainy.

this quote gave the game away " or something like that "
