The rec.puzzles FAQ is incredible. It covers an enormous range of puzzles. The only problem is... it's *too* big. Few first-time posters to the newsgroup are going to read it all. I propose that somebody creates a mini-FAQ containing the *really* frequently asked questions... Proposed entries: "What is the next term in this sequence? 1, 11, 21, 1211, 111221, 312211..." Monty Haul 26 = L. of the A. "When I was in <generic geeky environment>, we used to do situation puzzles. Such as: A man is lying, dead, in the desert, with a match in his hand. Does anybody know where any more of these can be found?" What do you think? - Stephen
