I'm joining in on this! Try to decrypt this sentence:

Spaces matter in the encoding so hyphens are used as spaces. Punctuation and capitalization are ignored; all the letters are lowercase to avoid confusion from a lowercase L and a capital i.

"A man is returning from Switzerland by train. Suddenly he gets up and kills himself. If he had been sitting in a smoking compartment he would have survived".

I'll answer questions, but only "yes" or "no".

Hmm....smoking...
Assuming he were in the smoking car at the time he died/would have died, is it safe to assume that he would have smelled smoke? Or at least seen somebody lighting a cigar/cigarette?

Yes? No? Kind of... ;-)

I'll go with yes.

Did the reason he killed himself have anything to do with what time it was?

No.

Had he already previously planned to kill himself?

No.

Was there something in the other compartments that wasn't in the smoking compartment?

No.

PS:
"Did the reason he killed himself have anything to do with what time it was?"

I said no, but another might have said yes. There is a connection to time, but I don't want to put you on the wrong track here.
