Consider this official notification that I am disregarding whatever
it is that needs to be disregarded. However, since I desire to be
thorough, I will check in from time to time to make certain that I
am still disregarding in a proper fashion.

Well, now, that certainly depends on the fly swatter doesn't it?
Some smoosh the flies so that the resultant goo sticks to the table.
Others smoosh the fly into the fly swatter. Some don't reliably do
either, in which case you may a fly or two smooshed into the
swatter and one gooped on the table. In the latter case, the
question cannot be answered as stated. Also, in the case of a fly
being partially smooshed into the table and partially smooshed
into the fly swatter, I'm assuming you would need a greater than
%50 resultant smooshed fly mass left on the table to qualify
saying that the fly was left (mostly) on the table. Difficult to
measure, especially if the smack was hard enough to send fly
goo elsewhere. I suppose then you could measure what you have
left against the average mass for that particulary type of fly to
ensure you have enough left to determine whether the majority is
on the table of swatter. You see, it's far more complicated than
stated....

I guess we can get philosophical about it. Is a fly merely the sum
of its parts? Or is there something more. Is an expired fly still a fly
with merely a changed state of being, or does it cease to be a fly
at all? Does an intact deceased fly still retain some sort of fly
status, whilst a smooshed one becomes a mere puddle of goo? Its
basic make up is still the same, only the structure has altered,
perhaps to the unrecognizable.

I am sitting at a table.
Ten flies are on the table. With one swat - I kill three flies.
How many flies are left on the table?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

None, certainly the rest flew away.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
3 the ones you kiled, 7 flew away
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, now, that certainly depends on the fly swatter doesn't it?
Some smoosh the flies so that the resultant goo sticks to the table.
Others smoosh the fly into the fly swatter. Some don't reliably do
either, in which case you may a fly or two smooshed into the
swatter and one gooped on the table. In the latter case, the
question cannot be answered as stated. Also, in the case of a fly
being partially smooshed into the table and partially smooshed
into the fly swatter, I'm assuming you would need a greater than
%50 resultant smooshed fly mass left on the table to qualify
saying that the fly was left (mostly) on the table. Difficult to
measure, especially if the smack was hard enough to send fly
goo elsewhere. I suppose then you could measure what you have
left against the average mass for that particulary type of fly to
ensure you have enough left to determine whether the majority is
on the table of swatter. You see, it's far more complicated than
stated....
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
Hell, I was assuming that a smooshed fly is no longer a "fly" but
is, instead, simply a smudge of acidic goo.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
I guess we can get philosophical about it. Is a fly merely the sum
of its parts? Or is there something more. Is an expired fly still a fly
with merely a changed state of being, or does it cease to be a fly
at all? Does an intact deceased fly still retain some sort of fly
status, whilst a smooshed one becomes a mere puddle of goo? Its
basic make up is still the same, only the structure has altered,
perhaps to the unrecognizable.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
Well now a fly that has been smooshed can't can he? So is he
still called a "Fly"

If you pull off his wings, but don't smoosh him, does he become a

That makes me think, is it called a fish inside the water and
outside?
Wouldnt a caught fish called a fished? I mean it is no longer in
the water, so it should be called something else.
Beleive it or not, this happens in spanish, a fished fish is called
differently than a fish in the water.

A boat with a heavy rock in it is floating in a pool... If the rock is

A: rise

The water level will envelope the rock!

That it will but the answer is STILL B:fall

So are we testing all the answers in this thread. I tried to train 7
flys to let me kill three of them but none of them took off and I
killed them all. Turns out four stayed on the table and the other
three stuck to the swatter but they all left a certain amount of juice
on the table so I don't know what the answer might be.

42 is the answer to the meaning of life. So it could be reasonable
to asume its numeric value to be SAILING.

A floating rock has displaced its weight in water.
A sunken rock has displaced less than its weight.
Therefore less water has been displaced.

Your answer is a good answer but it is only a very good answer if
it is in response to a question. Where is the question I ask?
