Abstract

Presents a /simple/ epistemic solution to the paradox of the surprise test, suitable for undergraduates. Given the Gazette's audience, recalcitrant versions, such as Sorenson's, would have been inappropriate to even mention. It is also classified under "logical paradoxes," because it can be argued that given the existence of logical, rather than epistemic, solutions, so also the paradox is logical, rather than epistemic. The author was not sent proofs, because the /Gazette/ was then run on a "shoestring budget"; the 2009 article is just as intended, and the journal is now typeset well.
