I worked out deductive arguments to answer this question; i have the logic written out, I won’t give it out to anyone who hasn’t tried to work the solution outo themselves – but if you’ve tried and you’re stumped – or want validation, let me know and I’ll be happy to provide it!<\/P>

<\/A><\/A><\/A>You are the sole survivor of a shipwreck and are drifting in a small raft parallel to the coast of an island. <\/SPAN>You know that on this island there are only two tribes of natives: <\/SPAN>Nobles, kind folk who always tell the truth and Savages, cannibals who always lie. <\/SPAN>Naturally, you want to find refuge with the Nobles. <\/SPAN>You see a man standing on the shore and call out, “Are you a Noble or a Savage?” <\/SPAN>The man answers the question, but a wave breaks on the beach at that very moment, so you don’t hear the reply. <\/SPAN>The boat drifts farther down along the shore when you see another man. <\/SPAN>You ask him the same question, and he replies, pointing to the first man, “He said he was a Noble.” <\/SPAN>Then he continues, “I am a Noble.” <\/SPAN>Your boat drifts farther down the shore where you see a third man. <\/SPAN>You ask him the same question. <\/SPAN>The man seems very friendly as he calls out, “They are both liars. <\/SPAN>I am a Noble. <\/SPAN>They are Savages.”<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/A><\/P> <\/P> Who are the Nobles and who are the Savages?<\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/SPAN><\/SPAN> (From Philosophy: The Quest for Truth, Louis P.
