Today, in E.L.A., I learned about a study of Philosophy where you could learn about what kind of decision maker you are. For example, today in class we listened to an article that sort of ringed around the question "what would you do?" The story we listened to was about 2 boats that were stranded and in deep danger because the boat was about to sink and the narrator was in a position where s/he had to decide if s/he was going to leave his/her friends that s/he made on the boat. If so, then they would only have about 2 hours or so to pull the boat back up to sea level. If s/he stayed on the boat, then they would've had 5 hours but s/he would've been risking his/her life.
    So basically the point was that, you had to decide which path you would take at the end of the story. I think it asked something like would you have stayed on the boat for the benefit of having 5 hours to bring the boat back up but decreasing your chance of dying, or would you have jumped on to the other boat with a benefit of being rescued and continue to live but decrease the time the other people have to pull the boat up and be rescued as well. This actually made people (my classmates and I) find out what kind of decision maker we are!
