Question: Tom works for a demolition company, and today he is demolishing a building by implosion. The building will implode automatically at 5:00 PM if either the safety switch is off or knob A is switched on. At 4:00 PM, the safety switch is off, and knob A is off. At that time, Tom checks to see if knob A is on, and he sees that it's off. So, he changes the position of knob A to the on position. Because the building will implode if either the safety switch is off or knob A is switched on, the building implodes at 5:00 PM. Did the building implode because Tom changed the position of knob A?  Reply Yes or No based on the answer the majority of people would give. If you think people would be split roughly 50-50 between Yes and No then reply Ambiguous.
