You will undergo the following experiment:

1. During the weekend you will be put to sleep with a drug and not be woken
up until Monday.
2. On monday you will be woken up and asked what day it is. *How do you
answer?*
3. You are then given a drug to put you to sleep again and also given a
drug that induces amnesia of being woken up at all on Monday.
4. You are woken up on Tuesday, and asked what day it is. *How do you
answer?*

*If asked to ascribe a probability to it being Monday when you are woken
up, how do you answer on either of the days you are awoken?*

(I am particularly interested in John Clark's answer to the final question)
