Question: Ten random strangers are going to die. You can only save one of them by killing yourself. Would you do it? How would you choose who to save?

I suspect that this is the kind of question you get a completely different answer to when you actually arrive in the situation.
Coolly and dispassionately, sitting in front of my computer, I think to myself: There’s nothing to tie me to these random strangers. I don’t know what sort of people they are. I have people in my life who rely on me and need me. Why should I die in their place?
If there was some kind of obligation on me, like they were my patients, or I knew them personally or I thought there was a chance we might all survive, then that might change. Who knows what would happen in the heat of the moment?
I see the trend the questions are taking now the evictions have started… You are really going to miss Andrewm and marianne…Don’t worry about it elmo… Vote andrewl and everything will be fine…! 🙂
