    Laks, answering your question to Soka. His middle name is the same as the first name in the clue you're talking about.

    For clues there is no need to bother with flipped text. It's more fun when you post an oblique clue to the actual answer the way Soka did.

    It's safe to assume that every one of my posts is edited to the extent that the edit-window allows - many typos imposed by my right dominance, poor grammar, cut 'n paste snafus and most of all my eternal dissatisfaction with my writing. After the window closes, I spend some time contemplating chopping off my fingers to stop myself from ever writing again. I never give a reason, since it's almost always the same: bad grammar, poor phrasing, inelegant formulation ....

    However, you are right, I do not see the 'last edited' line in any of my posts in this thread. I guess I am endowed with hacking skills I never knew I possessed!thinkingsmiley:idea :wink:
    Now, let me tell you about quantum tunneling and how it relates to data manipulation ....

    Thanks to my newfound 'right-brained' company, my poor old 'left-dominant' brain is receiving a liberal arts education. Not complaining however. :)

    Ha, ha, for the record, I was referring to my right hand on the keyboard typing faster than my left, leading to my numerous typos, not the left-brain / right-brain thing! (Note that "right-hand" would mean "left-brain" anyway!).

    Borges is fantastic, both literally & figuratively. Even if it is not to your taste, it is important to have read him. Borges once said: "
    Any time something is written against me, I not only share the sentiment but feel I could do the job far better myself".

    Check out this page!

    Treasure your afternoons with Borges' Ficciones & make sure to pick the right reading chair, ottoman and coffee!

    Simon says, name this man!

    He claimed to possess, in his own words, a marvelous elucidation of an inscrutable proposition, that sadly remained but a marginal conjecture. Until three centuries and some years later, it all came to a wiley resolution!
