There are 201(including king) people on an island. There are two huts on the island, that seperate the green and the blue eyed people. 100 green eyed stay in one hut, while the other 100 blue eyed stay in another. These people can not speak, or communicate (body language) with each other. They don't even know their eye color. One day, their king tells the blue eyed people that they have to leave the island by night. By morning, all the blue eyed people are gone. How is this possible?

P.S. the king can talk to the people, but is forbidden to tell them their eye color.

All they have to do is look at the people in the other hut and see theya re all green eyed, and know they are the blue eyed people.

The king is not bound by those constraints and so tell only those who are blue eyed to leave the island. U said they didn't understand green eyed people and body language which means they can understand verbal language from the king. He doesn't really have to tell them their eye color.

Well the king told the blue eyed people. :)
Actualy, what I want to know is, where the heck did the king stay, two huts with 100 in each, was the king a brown eye, hehe.
Ok well I got the brown eye bit right, lol. So was the king colour blind, so just told everyone to leave, to be sure of the blue eyed's going. Owww did he kill them. No they got a boat outta there, hehe, yep gasping at straws. :)

ok if they understood the king then the king only told the blue eyed people to leave the island because he could see their eye colours.

I am sick of all the prejudice in the world against green-eyed people. Can't blue-eyed people realize they are not as good as the green-eyed ones and just accept the fact they must acquiesce to their demands. It seems so simple when I just spell it out.

"The king tells the blue eyed people that they have to leave the island by night". So they left.(ie, he did not say "all blue-eyed ppl must leave", he actually told all the blue-eyed ppl to leave....:P)
