  1. Given that the other letters in binary are in the same position as words that have a 0, I think that it can be proved that the word is XINXXX.

  2. 1. Use your cell phone that you would NEVER go anywhere without and call animal control.

    2. Hope that the ground is soft and start digging.

    3. Wait until the lion gives up or falls asleep. Maybe throw your shoe as a distraction.

  3. I've struggled for something more explicit, complicated or precise but all I can come up with for these accepted words (although, please, rainbow, underneath, achieve) is:

    Words must contain a pair of different, traditional, vowels (a,e,i,o,u) AND at least 6 characters long AND an A anywhere in the word (I can't explain why 'appear' is rejected)

    You're over thinking it. Other than the vowel pair part, my rule does not have anything to do with numbers. No math or foreign languages this time. :) You might try reading some of Perry's posts.

  4. OK. Thanks!

    EDIT: :duh: Since the editor clearly dislikes me:angry: , I guess I'll space it manually. *sigh*
