        Ascertain the truth, the compare it to what the liar is saying. In lieu of that, torture works probably works pretty well too. :)

            I turn beat red and get a giant grin on my face when I lie so that is probably a good way to know if I am lying.

            Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost

              I also develop an apologetic smile when I lie, and I’m so clumsy liar that I learned to not lie or exaggerate at all/bit of a lie here/.

                Alas, anybody will lie to stop you doing the ginger beer trick. The easiest way to spot a liar, is to look out for a type of man [it is always a man] called a 'salesman'. Immediate termination with prejudice is the advisable, and only, course of action.

                    If they are a politician, there is a fairly good tip to tell if they are lying. Is their mouth open? Yes - they are lying. No - they have just finished lying.

                      The problem is that that this is statistics - liars are more likely to. That's almost (not quite) like noticing that terrorists are brown eyed.

                                  What a load of crap - I stopped reading after they claimed everyone lies about 10 times a day and then defined a lie as denial of culpability. No one screws up about 10 times a day and has to deny it, not and lives past the age of 5. Now bullshits 10 times a day I can understand, especially if there is any time spent in the pub!
