Reading the other thread about Haahoo Guru and his love of Statistics I was inspired to put forward this problem of Statistics to my fellow sajhaites.
There r 3 closed doors. 2 of them have monkey in them and 1 has a man. So the probability of finding the man is 1/3.
Now suppose that we open one of the doors and find a monkey in that door. Then the Statisticans say that even though a common man might say that "now the probability of finding the man is 1/2", the actual probability is 2/3.
What say Sajhaites?

Depends on the way you take your domain. 3 as in the original or 2 in the second.
