riddle me this.

You are in a room with two doors. One door holds a room when entered will take on the form of any of you fondest desires. The other when passed through hold a bottom pit in which you will fall to you untimely death. there are two robots guarding the doors. One robot only tells the truth and one only tells lies. You only get one question to ask, then you must make your decision as to which door to go through.

What is your one question?

Good one!

I would say to one of the robots:

"If I were to ask the other robot which door leads me to my fondest desires, which door would he tell me?"

Then I would choose the opposite door of what he says.

No matter which robot you ask, you will always enter the correct door.
