If the question was "Your apartment is burning, which would you save first: baby or dog?" - that would imply a possibility of going back and saving the other, while still allowing for the risk that you might not have enough time to do both. In that case, going for the dog first is at least slightly more defensible. Actually, it just said building collapses before you can run back in. But that doesnt mean we know its going to collapse. darkknight109 posted...
