And if you're wondering about the 'printing error' on the last puzzle
solution, saw this nice quote from Tim on Blues News:

"We didn’t have the last puzzle designed when I wrote that document,
so I wrote two nonsense paragraphs and then overlapped them in the
file so it would look like the final puzzle description was in there,
but obscured by a print formatting error. That way I could turn the
document in by the deadline. As if anybody was going to read it all
the way to the end anyway. Ha ha. Obfuscation triumphs again! I
delight in Evil!"

Snyone saved this and would be sending it to me? Seems to have been
