2019 Cryptogram Solvers Hall of Fame

Over the next few days I will list the names of Today’s CG puzzle solvers admitted to THE HALL OF FAME

The selection is based on the consistency of effort, fun, creative, sometimes goofy and lively commentary, and their general enthusiasm.

In addition their choice reflects their skill and temerity of purpose in the solving of these daily CGs and their support for this posting.

On February 26th, (The first day of Lent), I will name three Hall of Famers, and give a $25 donation to Free Republic in their behalf.

Congratulations to Today's Cryptogram Hall of Famer: cartan;

cartan, our German friend, has been a CG solver for a long time. One of the most supportive followers who rarely gets stumped on a CG, and his primary language is German! Congratulations!!!

Solution to our last puzzle:

WHAT LIES BEHIND US AND WHAT LIES AHEAD OF US ARE TINY MATTERS COMPARED TO WHAT LIES WITHIN US. ---SOURCE OBSCURE
