A riddle revisited.

[Never]

On your travels, three men stand at a fork in the road. You're not sure which fork you
need to take, but each of the three men do. One of these people tells the truth, one
always lies, and the third tells the truth sometimes and lies the other times. Each of the
three men know each of the others, but you don't know who is who. If you could ask
only one of the men (chosen at random, since you don't know which man is which) one
yes/no question, what question would you ask to determine the road you wish to take?
