The variation is: you are confronted with two twin guards who each guard a door. Behind one door is freedom, the other leads to certain death. You know nothing. One of the guards tells you, "One of us always tells the truth, the other always lies." You may ask exactly one question of exactly one guard. What do you do? Keep in mind that you don't actually know anything beyond what the one guard said. An answer can be found on the discussion page.
