  1. Akaslickster, here's a convenience you can perform for us readers--if you combine all your responses in each post, then nobody has to read the whole thread. For example, the answers you've given so far are: I like peanut but I don't like akaslickster I like pics but I don't like mirrors I like rifle but I don't like gun I like cold but I don't like heat I like milk but I don't like tea A "not very tough" rule is probably just exactly the right amount of toughness--even simple rules are tricky to discern. Yours has me scratching my head...which is a good thing.

    Slight, I'm assuming that the meaning of original text itself IS the hint (SOME MEANING SEEN AFTER A VERY NEAR SCAN). Admittedly, I don't get much out of it, but that's why it's a puzzle. Is that true? Is (SOME MEANING SEEN AFTER A VERY NEAR SCAN) the hint as well as the string to be anagrammed?

    NIGHTJAR it is! Thanks, Artificial I, for saving me from coming up with increasingly apologetic phrases for how unlikely it would be that people would actually know the word. And as for all the guesses, it caused me to investigate more compact representation, which is a good thing. So, please take it away!
