My most cryptic visual clue yet. First of all, many thanks to Green Eggs for picking up the slack while I was having my bionic implants installed. He came up with a tough challenge and one that generated plenty of interest- and frustration- within the commentariat. I’m not 100% back yet, but I’m doing well [...]
