Great Puzzle in one of the papers that quite a percentage of people don't get right.
Bob is looking at Sue, but Sue it looking at Tom
Bob is married. Tom is not married.
Is a married person looking at an unmarried person.
Yes
No
Or it can't be determined.
Answers on a postcard please. Or actually just post them here it's easier |

"The answer lies in another question... Is bob married to Sue??!! Therefore undetermined x
Ahh.. but Bob could have a FAB profile saying he's single and Sue doesn't know he's married!! "
Ha ha. I like it. It would definitely be cannot be determined if they were all fab users |

Can't be determined... unless
Bob has a split personality called tom... so sue is actually looking at both bob and tom at the same time...
But that's not going to help because we don't know if sue is married or not..
Ah crap it |
