Are you lying to me Mish? <GG>

Of Course. But if that's a lie, I was originally telling the truth (or vice versa).

Here's a riddle for you.
You are at a fork in the road and do not know which way to go.
There are three houses on the fork and all the farmers are out in the yard. One farmer always tells a lie, One farmer always tells the truth, and one farmer sometimes tells a lie and sometimes tells the truth. The farmers have a relative intellegence. Farmer Adams is the smartest and always tells the truth. Farmer Brooks is the dumbest and always lies. Farmer Smith is a coniving SOB and sometimes tells the truth and sometimes lies. Each of the farmers knows which one is the smartest and which one is the dumbest. Each of the farmers knows which is the correct fork for to your destination. You do not know which farmer is which. The farmers themselves know which one lies, tells the truth and which one varies his tune.

You do not know which fork in the road to take. You get to ask 2 and only 2, "yes/no" "right/wrong" "him/her" "This fork/that fork" type questions. (the farmers may be male or female it does not matter).

Your questions please.
Two questions, a guaranteed answer exists.
What are the questions to sort out the truth?
