Did your computer just hiccup Adiabatic??  :laugh:

Or did you decide to make the puzzles a lot more difficult?  ;)

I figured Meryl's out.  But I don't like HOW I figured it out.  Or rather, I don't think that how I figured it out is a fair way that should count in this game, honor system-wise.  So after having it posted for half a minute, I withdrew it.

Well, shoot, adiabatic.  I already had it figured out that 9 probably =A.  Can you give us another clue, please?  :)

Um, Miz Merly has one posted.  Adiabatic has one posted.  And now welliwont has one posted.

(Jane that one about the filly that you quoted is from June 8th.)

(Elle, I swear that Merly did not have one when I first posted this. I swear!)

%934   @9^8   >l9112   6$94>8,   1*9748%   <$6^   #8l63   #2   9   >8l9*74651   #94%   6<   x9l8   >$884.

3 = W
9 = A
> = G
$ = R

(By the way, the comma and the period are real.)

I think I can tell what it is, but don't have it all.  I love this quote so much!

Warning to all working on the puzzle - notice that there are the numeral 1 and another vertical line thingie that you could confuse for a 1.

Merly edited her post, is why.  ;D  Guess you didn't believe me when I said "Give me a minute."  ;)
