As Sherlock Holmes said, "Once you have eliminated the probable whatever is left, no matter how improbable must be the answer" Or something like that.


Not to be critical, but I believe Sherlock Holmes said, "Once you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable must be the answer."

Well spotted and welcome to the forum. Very Happy I bow to your superior knowledge. In my defence I did add "Or something like that." However if you study the correct version, if it is ?'impossible' why is there a need to eliminate what ?'can't be?'

In any event SH did not say any such thing, only the author who wrote it. :wink:
