Moderators Gregory Matthews Posted March 8, 2020 Moderators Posted March 8, 2020 Can you solve the following? Every statement of mine is true. Nothing that I say is false. * On one military assignment, I was stationed in Panama. * My office looked out on the Pacific side of the canal locks. * One day I walked to the pavement of Southern side of the Pacific locks. * With my feet never leaving tha pavement, I walked to the other side of the Panama Canal. IOW, I was not in a vehicle of any kind and I was not in any kind of a boat. I was not in an aircraft. * At that time, the canal was full of water. * How is it that I was able to walk from one side of the canal to the other side. Quote Gregory

B/W Photodude Posted March 9, 2020 Posted March 9, 2020 I suspect that one could walk across the top of the gates of the locks when they are closed for raising or lowering the water levels..
