This one is called the "Traveler's Dilemma"

You and another passenger lose identical souvenirs on an airline. The manager cuts you a deal - you can both write a dollar amount on a piece of paper, between 2 and 100. If you both write the same amount, you both get that amount. However, if one person writes y and the other writes x, and y < x, then the person who wrote y gets y + 2, and the person who wrote x gets y - 2.

What moves will players rationally play?

On peeling a raw potato we sometimes run into black spots that must be cut out. Once in a while, the potato is so black it is discarded. That's OK. We're used to it.
My question is this. We also bake Idahoes. I can't recall ever opening a baked potato and seeing the black spots. What happens to the black spots when you bake. Where do they go?

We are approaching a $1 trillion annual trade deficit, most of it with Asia, $220 billion with just China -- just last year.

the shrinkage of the dollar does matter to a country that perchases most of their commodities overseas...

If not I will have to be content with being a good atheist person, but a bad Christian.

Thanks to Henry VIII and his antics I'm christened in the Church of England denomination. I think they are fairly lax nowdays anyway.

I have a 13 month baby boy and I am concerned. He can say mama, and dada, but thats it. He isnt saying any other words, he can drink from a sippee cup but hasnt grasped having to tip it up to get the juice out, and does not like to eat solid foods. I give him the spoon often to see if he will try to feed himself, but he just chews on the spoon and nothing else. I know I should not be comparing, but I have a friend who has a baby girl of the same age and she is already doing all these things. Should I be worried?
