Robison) Followup-To: Distribution: usa Organization: Exxon Office Systems, Princeton Keywords: The Sunday New York Times Crossword Puzzle (11/4/84) contained one of the funniest puzzle premises I have ever seen. I recommend to puzzle and word fans. Be carefull now! In the rest of this memo I am going to give away much of the fun... The puzzle takes the phrase "all for one and one for all" literally. There are several definitions, well-marked, where one can see the results of this. For example, one question, for which the answer ought to be "Stallone", actually has the answer "Stoneall". The requested quote from the Ancient Mariner is: alall, alall, one, one alall The practice of refusing to answer a question is: stallwoneing. etc. - Toby Robison (not Robinson!) allegra!eosp1!robison or: decvax!ittvax!eosp1!robison or (emergency): princeton!eosp1!robison
