I think all of us try to solve these without help, but when I’m stumped, and that seems to be every 5th or 6th puzzle, I’ll copy and paste the quote into HAL’S HELPER, and that usually gives you the “E” and “T”s.
I use Hals Helper and - like a Crossword puzzle, when I get ‘stumped’ I put it down and come back to it. and I don’t consider that a ‘win’.... I also think using HAL is ‘cheating’(for lack of a better word) BUT I use it anyway.<: <: <:
Haven’t been all that succesful with these but if I ‘guess’ correctly on the first couple things tend to ‘fall in place’.
A “T H E” opened up an EVERTHING and it was downhill from there.
Thanks for the ‘challenges’....
