Chicago, USA.



A Social Experiment.

Two cups full of water are left in an office ... one labeled "Poison" and the other labeled "Not Poison".

People who walk by and are looking for a glass of water almost exclusively grab the cup labeled "Not Poison". Why?

It's a question of source validity.

For some reason, people believe the stranger who labeled (and, quite possibly also poisoned) the cups is telling the truth.

What would you believe?
