Thumbs up Riddle

I need help solving this riddle, my inheritance depends on it.(lol)

Your driving down a a road and come to a "T". Yoy dont know if you should make a left or a right to get to the Library. You see two guys,who are twins, and ask for directions. One twin always lies, the other always tells the truth. What question do you ask that will let you know which way to go


Thx Rich

Ask either brother, "Which direction would your brother tell me to go to get to the library?"

Whichever answer you get, go the other way.

its all about Greed!!!

Offer the brothers a reward if they can tell you how to get there. If one or both take you there you will pay them on the spot.

The good brother will say thats not nessary and tell you, the liar will take you up on your offer and take you there..

Ask them both can you tell me how to get to the library. The one that lies will say no the one that tell the truth will say yes.

This is a flawed question.

One, a man would never ask directions.

Two, if this was West Virginia, neither twin would know what a library was, let alone where it was.
