JM (John Michaels- creator of the hunt (with Kit Palencar) has released a clue! What does it suggest? What are searchers missing?

For myself....one thing I found interesting (which might suggest there is more cryptically hidden in the note) is that TREASURE is the 13th word.... and it is the hunt for the 13th casque/treasure. So is there more going on with word counts? or is it just coincidence?

So with the differing E/e's... there are 13 of them.... which could still be coincidental, but maybe follow it some and see where it might lead.....
IF you take each line and create a number with them (23 in first line- 2E, 3e) so ....23, 33, 12, 02, 22, 20, 10, 21... the letter count would give OBVODUHN...word count, however, and in order gives: CLUES TO THE BOOK, A PUZZLE, IS THINKING....
Could it lead to Rodin, the Thinker at the University of Louisville?

Place is the tenth - X - word....
(in the 13 E capped words of: SOME CLUES OTHERS HAVE OVERLOOKED THE PUZZLE SOLVED DIRECTING PLACE SOME THE RACE)

And the 31st word in the note-- (reverse 13)

Of the 13 words...with capped E.... Place is 10th/X... but RACE is 13 - and that seems to be key here.... so maybe the treasure is in a Place of a Race?

I also believe he is saying don't start moving away from the park looking for new places....you know like that famous track in town with the Twin Spires.

Enid worked with Rodin in Paris.
