You can find this fun quotation puzzle, to combat early dementia and senility in us baby boomers, in several daily publications. I challenge us with the best ones out there.

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.

Be careful, there are psychos on this site who will accuse you of trying to SABOTAGE the Robinsons by posting “copyrighted” images from Alamy and “risking a lawsuit”.

I’m only making a point. You’re not violating any rules, and we all have repeatedly done this without any problems whatsoever (Alamy doesn’t care). But watch out for the self-appointed FR gestapo in case they try to report you to the mods (or, even more sadly, JimRob himself).

And thanks for posting the cryptogram - a good one today! And a very good image!

Wonderful, classic quote from a prominent Freemason. America owes him much. Excellent.
