Fair enough.. It would have been better stated as a train problem than a trolley problem. But I personally wouldn't ding the philosophy majors too hard for that.

And still, I have no idea what you could throw in front of a trolley to slow it down appreciably with only a few seconds to think.

I said throw shit onto the track to try and stop the trolley once.

So you think the right thing to do is something that everyone knows wouldn't make the slightest improvement to the situation?
