The way it works is a letter stands for another letter. For example: AXYDLBAAXR is LONGFELLOW (does not apply to today's cryptogram).
Beware, the game is very addictive. If this is your first time, don't be intimidated, you’ll be solving them all within a few days. If you’re stumped, take a break and return to it.
PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out.
You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!
I suggest printing these out and work them on paper. If you need a little help you can copy and paste it to Hal’s Helper below.
You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper, but I recommend that you do NOT look at the letter counter.
One last request. Feel free to post a fun or clever clue, the more tangential to the quotation the better, but please don’t put the actual words of the quote in the clue.

It’s easy to become a recognized expert.
Study and pay close attention to an obscure subject others don’t really care about
One can in fact become a miscellaneous expert
Yes, very fast. I would add yarn and knitting needles to the list.
miscellaneous expert...thats funny :)
I remember, but I thought I’d post it anyway, since it was a good one.
About three minutes. If only the author hadn’t had a disagreement with Anthony on 15 March...
