This looks like another of the good ideas people have on here that then doesn't get done. I'm sick of that happening.

If folkTheory creates one exercise as an example, I will make another. I hereby commit to this. If I don't follow through within 2 weeks of folkTheory posting his example, please downvote this comment to negative 10. FolkTheory, please PM me when you have yours so I make sure I see it. Thanks.

Everybody else who wants to see this succeed, feel free to post a similar comment.

EDIT: I'm doing an exercise for Words As Hidden Inferences, and will post the exercise as a discussion post no later than April 17, 2011. If it doesn't match what folkTheory was envisioning, I'll make edits but won't lose the karma.

EDIT2: It's up.

I'm glad this is actually happening, and at great speed.
I hereby commit to doing exercises for 'Belief in Belief' and 'Bayesian Judo' by what appears to be our standard commitment: Deliver by April 17, 2011 or downvote to -10

Note: It'll be a combined exercise for those two articles as they're very related.

Same commitment.
