Kicked my butt on that one Pojack. Good job!

I told you you could solve it with first grade math LOL! I had a time for about 1 afternoon before I got it also. Most of my friends and colleagues never got it....LOL!!

It's one of those forehead smackers. You know, when you smack yourself in the forehead and go "Doh!"

Very good! I had a fun time with it. You wouldn't believe the convolutions I went through....

Check this out...

1
11
21
12
11
11 then it repeats in reverse...
12
21

so...first three numbers of the next line would be 111... but then what?
I think this hint of a pattern is what gets us stuck. You can see there's something going on but you just can't find it, so you keep digging and digging...like when you're trying to derive an identity in trig!

That is exactly why it is so much fun. I, originally was a math major and it took me a time to get it.....sort of can't see the forest for the trees.

I was looking for old threads that I found interesting to help the Doolie parents take their minds off the big elephant in the room.

My Screen name was started several years ago while trying to come up with a name for a fantasy sports league (if there is anyone out there interested in creating a group, let me know. It would be a pretty fun group)

It is play on words and a mix of Monkey See Monkey Do - SeaMonkeyDo And if you do any geochaching in the Central Coast of California you might just see my name on some hidden lists.

Lark, not as scary a name as one would think.

If memory serves me correctly there is a geocaching location at the AFA. Maybe if you go out for A day or PW you can catch a few in the Springs.

Mine is extremely original. It's what AOL gave me about 15 years ago. Because my name was Marcie and I was from MI (Michigan). No longer but I've used the name for so long that it's not worth changing at this point!

FYI:

I will be changing my name to "A-trainsMOM" soon as I have learned that this is the name that all his friend were calling him at USAFA throughout his 4 years. I thought it was just a tennis team nick but it got around the academy and is what he now goes by. Auzmanmom was a for Auzman a nick given by a teacher and was his email address for a long time.
