• Consider the problem of how to arrange a group
  of n people so each person can shake hands with
  every other person. How might you organize this
  process? How many times will each person shake
  hands with someone else? How many handshakes will
  occur? How must your method vary according to
  whether or not n is even or odd?

• There is an old joke that goes something like
  this If God is love, love is blind, and Ray
  Charles is blind, then Ray Charles is God.
  Explain, in the terms of first-order logic and
