0 Jiminy Cricket Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 this is not as good as Bonanova Please let me apologize. I am very sorry if my puzzle does not satisfy your level of expectation. Some of us are merely mortal Some of us can only do so much Of course, you are welcome to post some of your own. Frankly, I don't know why you felt it necessary to be critical. Finally, Welcome to the Den! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Prof. Templeton Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 They must have figured it out, if they know it's not as good as bn's. I, for one would like to know the explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, for one would like to know the explanation. Perhaps our new friend would be so kind as to give us the answer? Unless he/she has not figured it out. Now that would be ironic! Know what I mean?

0 Guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) this is not as good as Bonanova 1. This is the best yet, because I'm in it Thanks JC! 2. If it is so under par, what is the obvious answer? 3. Didn't your Mother teach you that if you don't have something nice (or pertinent) to say not to say anything at all? 4. Welcome to the Den - Where everyone gets along and doesn't criticize unneccesarily 5. Still working on it JC, but so far I haven't gotten any of these so don't hold your breath!

But at least you think enough of me to include me in it! I will keep pondering it until someone posts what my number is. The negative numbers are really throwing me for a loop.
