I can see I'll have to atone for my bad guess.  So, here's puzzle which would
be fairly trivial to solve by computer, but might provide some amusement if
done manually.  It's a cryptarithm, That is, you must assign unique digits to
each of the letters to make the formula correct.

	HOWARD * A = LANDMAN

Well, *I* found it amusing anyway.  There's only one solution.
