Natal'ya Vorotnikova has applied for the Challenge with all required documents and the claim that she will be able to identify a box containing a male who speaks Russian in a warehouse type setting.

According to Ms. Vorotnikova's Challenge claim, she will be able to identify a box (I am assuming coffin-like, though it must be painted a bright colour, like red) amongst many (like twenty) identical boxes if there is a Russian male inside. None of the other boxes can contain people, and the test should take place in a large room, like a warehouse.

The major problems with the claim at this time are:

That test would be unbelievably expensive

AND

The test is supposed to take place over a period of an hour, and I cannot imagine how to keep a boxed Russian man silent for that long.

More soon!

Mrs. Vorotnikova has approved of a protocol that will use a school corridor lined with classroom doors.

Mrs. Vorotnikova has agreed that she will be able to identify which classroom contains a person, even without touching the doors or pausing at them while music is playing in the corridor.

A preliminary protocol is being written with this in mind.
