Well… perhaps later this week. This thread is three pages long, and I think maybe a new one should be started for the next puzzle… Also, keeping up with the questions, there at the end, was a full-time effort! You guys did great, though… I am impressed, especially with the multitude of simulposts there at the end where everyone sort of got it at the same time. Well done. ---
