Which Road is Safe?

Yesterday’s Problem

If 8-22-5-22-13 equals seven, and 7-4-12 makes two,
how would you write ten?

Answer:

7-22-13. This is a cryptogram. Solve it by
substituting the letters for numbers.
7=t, 22=e, 13=n, 5=v, 8=s, 4=w, 12=o

Today’s Problem:

You’ve driven into a the country of
Black & White where there are (truthfully)
only truth tellers and liars. There is no
middle ground. No one can tell the
difference by looking a man or woman
straight in the eyes.

This is a dangerous trip and you must make
good decisions. There is no room for mistakes.

While traveling down Route 66 you come to
a fork in the road. One way leads to safety.
The other way to a terrorist attack.

The sign post is gone at the fork, but there
are two men standing at the fork waiting for
a bus. One man has a white beard. The other
has green eyes.

What question can you ask either man that
will tell you which road is safe?
