This is part of an actual call recorded by the A&Q division of the Philosophical Help Line call center. The names have been removed to protect the identities of the parties involved.
Q: Thank you for calling Philosophical Help Line, where every answer has a question, is there anything you would like us to question today?
A: Hi there. I was pondering this: Suppose that someone only lived for one day; half of their life would be light, and the other half would be dark.
Q: Isn't it that way already?
A: But we sleep during the night.
Q: Why wouldn't they just sleep during the night too?
A: Because that would be half of their already short life.
Q: Isn't it that way already?
A: ...yeah.....okay....thanks. (click)
[Dial tone]
Just another call, helping people at the Philosophical Help Line call center.
