February 2, 2012 The Shadow Knows

[Sundae]

We have a number of questions/ statements posted along the corridor in school.
Some are riddles, some just designed to make you think.

One still has me baffled:
Think of an object that does not cast a shadow.
Given a source of light, surely everything corporeal casts a shadow?

A pane of window glass?

The earth's molten core.

Except a hole.

But you will admit that despite my gaffe, a burp is not an object and therefore doesn't answer the question.

I think a hole can be the only answer.

A source of light is a good one, but only tenable when it is the only source of light.
A lamp in a room will cast a shadow if you bring a candle in.

You mean I guessed it? Wow! I never figure these things out.
