Closing doors

Imagine you are in a long hallway with open doorways all the way down. For each 10lb. you loose you can shut, lock, and throw away the key to that door never to be opened agian. The hallway seems long, but for each door closed is closer to the end of the hall. So How many Doors have you closed? How many more doors do you need to shut to get out of the hall? How many doors do you need to shut to make you satisfied?

I would love to close 12 doors, but I would be happy to close 9.

Very interesting....I've closed 4 doors,actually was 5 doors,but I didn't throw that last key away I guess and stepped back through it.I'd love to close 7 more doors when all is said and done.

Hmm, I’ve closed 4 doors but 2 of them reopened. Now I’ve reclosed and thrown away the key to those 2 again. So 4 closed and locked for good, with 6 more to go. Although if I were able to close just 4 I’d be really happy.

Well I closed 5, but I guess the lock was broken on 2 of them! So, officially 3 closed and about 9 or 10 to go.

I closed 2 doors for sure. And I may close the 3rd this week. After that I need 4 more doors to close.
