The Mystery; The Awareness Test; The Exchange Principle

The Trash Tosser Mystery.

Things I noted:
- fishbone (criminal eats fish)
- Raccoon eats fish (is an omnivore)
- Bull does not eat fish (herbivore)
- Trashbag has an assortment of foodstuffs (criminal eats many things, may be a scavenger)
- Bull is well dressed, Raccoon is not?

Answer:
Raccoon is the criminal as it is an omnivore, unlike the Bull.
Evidence; the fishbone.

The Awareness Test.

How many tosses were there?
Answer: 13.

But did you see the moonwalking bear?
No! :O

Reflection of what you have learnt about yourself from the test.


I found that I’m not really aware of my surroundings, especially when focusing on a specific object. In a bid to count the number of passes, I did not see the moonwalking bear and only saw a black blur move across the screen. I did not pay much attention to it, which is rather strange as surely a moonwalking bear would command a certain amount of attention and would be hard to miss. Hence, I can conclude that we are in fact not very aware of the happenings around us and even the most attention-grabbing things can go unnoticed.


The Exchange Principle.


Every contact leaves a trace.
