Yes, a 1/2 truth is a whole lie. Learned that in philosophy, long time ago...lol

You have to word the question just right in order for someone not to give you whole truth.
example:
Are you doing drugs?
NO.
which would be an honest answer, you were not doing drugs at that moment.
But you were doing drugs 15 minutes before.
So were you lying when you said no or was the question not worded right?

I always tell the truth; this is a lie.
Isn't that sort of what Captain James Tiberius Kirk told the Androids?
