Wow! Sales have nearly doubled for TTOTC since the last time we got a figure from Forrest (22,000 was the last # I remember seeing, and that was as recent as last year!) Impressive acceleration. Last year TFTW sales were quite a bit lower than TTOTC (don't recall the figure, but it was 4 digits not 5) -- but that's hardly surprising since the book has been out for fewer years and is pricier. But I've recommended TFTW to anyone serious about solving the poem (plus it's a hefty, beautiful book!) It's a very modest price to pay compared to a single BOTG trip, and the disadvantage of NOT having it (compared to the thousands who do) is enough to prevent success, IMO.

Thanks admin. The total of books sold should give me a location. Latitude vs longitude |

Well well well It looks like he has an omniscient view of the Chase and that a couple of us are not behind and sitting on the hot plate sew to speak. He threw a huge hint out there with this 1 and as I was divulging this eye widening clue to someone online this comes out. Crazy, what's tomorrow? Ok. Anyway I'm popping a cold beer now and looking up at my stars and seeing, with marvel gaze, the smallest of light. I look down and see the most disgusting abuse of our land. Somebody should bring this to light in a truly well thought out way...

I am glad your boastful confidence is making you happy, although as many before you have felt the same, don’t be too let down if you do not find it. Stay on the blog. Don’t get all huffy puffy and run away. |

I've been off for a while. Did Oh! do the counts on that answer, or do I have to??  |

Wisdom. ;-) The poem can be solved without TFTW. Just not in time. |
