I had to ponder this one quite a while. I left the web site and just stewed on it for a while. When I figured it out I went back to the site ready to protest that there shouldn't have been a question mark at the end, and indeed there was not. Excellent. The answer should be "True". There is actually no given answer to the puzzle. I had fun with this.
Glad you enjoyed it Snowdog.
Well written and a clever idea, unfortunately the title gave it away!
Sounds like you might be an 'Abbot & Costello' fan( famous baseball routine )?
