    You are leaving us at such a good time when all of us are here? Oh well, I probably would never get it anyway. I am about an inch away from losing my mind.

    Was it the touch of a cigarette?

    The smell of a cigarette?
    No.

    The sight of a cigarette?
    Yes.

    The taste of a cigarette?

    The hearing of a cigarette?
    No.

    (I know this doesn't make sense but hey.)
    Makes perfect sense. My brother asked most of these, one right after the other - he asked about the smell first,

    EDIT: Sorry, posted at the same time :o

    Ok... it was the sight of a cigarette... which didn't reminded him of anything relevant...

    Was it a disease caused by a virus?

    I may be getting to nowhere =S

    I think you got something. Since morgaine has been saying this one was convoluted, I won't be surprised if he was blind.

    I guess time will tell. I think I know where to go with this one if so. If I am right I will back out and let you finish it and see if I was right.

    Yes I think I know it. Unky, it is up to you. I think I might put my answer down below here in white so Unky can keep going if he wants.

    Here it is:

    The man was blind but is not any longer thanks to the procedure in Switzerland. He is in a smoking room on the way back and the lights go out or they go through a tunnel, depending on day or night. He thinks he is blind again so he would want to kill himself, but thanks to the cigarette he saw in the dark, he was fine.

    Yes, you can disregard it, as I focused my next question.

    But I'm still at a loss lol.

    I can't figure out how the mere sight of a cigarette would have saved him...

    Was he depressed at life that he discovered the cigarette to 'escape' reality?

    Now, this is a really dumb question -_-

    No, LOL.

    Up to you if you want to keep going. I imagine it's getting late for you. But I'll be around later, depending on how soon you get back on after getting up.

    I don't know what to think, and yes, it's getting late here...

    But to commit suicide if he didn't see a cigarette?

    It was said that whether he smokes or not is irrelevant... he got on the smoking compartment of the train... being blind, he may not have noticed that there are different cars, one smoking and the other one non smoking...

    Does the man like cigarette smoke?

    Aww... this is becoming ridiculous...
