It's a trick question! Read the story carefully.

Does he or no? Just reply please! He talks to the police car and whispers to people through windows.

(Teachers: should I explain *why* it's a trick question, and either True OR False would be wrong on some level, depending on interpretation?)

I think ar53nal14 should make his/her own judgment. He/she clearly knows the "facts" as related in the story, so it should be a matter of applying the mind to the "meaning(s)".

Oh, it's not to determine if they're right or wrong! It's to make them THINK! Okay, then.

I thought it was absolutely clear. He was not "talking!"

He was "Walking! Just Walking!"

Well, ar53nal14 is persistent, I'll say that!

They're not having sport with you - they really want you to attempt an answer first, then they'll discuss it with you.
