During ancient times in Greece, public questions were discussed by writing a vote onto a clay stone, known as the ostrakon. Sometimes two different coloured stones could be used to choose between two options. Sometimes people were asked to vote about the exile of a famous person - who was therefore ostracised - or simply to discuss an issue. What if during a philosophers' council one of them asks a universal question like... "Are you ticklish, yes or no?"
