That because a rat can remember the past and a rat can use induction to make a prediction, and most important of all a rat knows if it's prediction turned out to be correct or not and that enables the rat to improve its induction process for Mr. Rat's next prediction. But if Mr. I, who is about to enter a "I" duplicating chamber, asks the question "Will I see Moscow tomorrow?" the only answer Mr. I will ever get is "yes and no", and that is not an answer so that was not a question.
