Below</EM>.</DD>

<DT>Tortoise</DT>
|

<DD>Very astute, Achilles. I don't think I've ever seen it before. It looks
|
| 25 |
+
pointillistic. Were all those colored speckles in the original work?</DD>
|
| 26 |
+
<DT>Achilles</DT>
|
| 27 |
+
<DD>No, not at all. It looks to me as though someone took a black-and-white
|
| 28 |
+
scan and randomly sprinkled colored dots all over it.</DD>
|
| 29 |
+
<DT>Tortoise</DT>
|
| 30 |

<DD>I know you won't believe this, but this reminds me of the MU-picture in
|
| 31 |
+
Hofstadter's book.</DD>
|
| 32 |

<DT>Achilles</DT>
|

<DD>I know you won't believe this, but I was thinking the same thing. How
|
| 34 |

curious...</DD>

Rhodography isn't a real subject, but rhodology is the study of
|
| 15 |
+
roses, and the French word rhodographie means a treatise on roses.
|
| 16 |
+
The "rose" root of this word was meant to hint that the frame is
|
| 17 |
+
from the comic strip <i>Rose is Rose</i>, and it was from the <a
|
| 18 |
+
moz-do-not-send="true"

+
href="https://www.gocomics.com/roseisrose/1996/05/18">May 18, 1996
|
| 20 |
+
edition</a> of that comic strip, which the puzzle number 51896 was
|
| 21 |
+
meant to clue (the 7 represents MIT course 7, Biology, which of
|
| 22 |
+
course is where the study of roses would fall). However, it was too
|
| 23 |
+
difficult for solvers to find this during the Hunt, and the answer
|
| 24 |
+
was released, the words that were removed from the comic strip
|
| 25 |
+
frame: NUCLEAR REACTOR.<br>

<p>The numbers don't match the atomic symbols they are next to, but

it suggests using atomic symbols.<br>
|
| 11 |

</p>
|
| 12 |

<p>The number at the top breaks up into atomic numbers: 52 (Te), 6
|
| 13 |

Review</i>.<br>
|
| 16 |
+
</p>
|
| 17 |

<p>Convert the other numbers directly to atomic symbols: 15 = P, 27
|
| 18 |
+
= Co, 3 = Li, 74 = W.<br>
|
| 19 |
+
</p>
|
| 20 |

<p>Convert the given atomic symbols to atomic numbers: Mo = 42, H =
|
| 21 |
+
1, O = 8, He = 42.<br>
|
| 22 |
+
</p>
|

the path. It's the kind of runaround where you are looking for

Sakura is one of the most popular Japanese girls' names in this

<p>The first few words in the puzzle hint to look in the MIT IAP
|
| 37 |
+
Guide. The relevant sentence from the description in the "Umpteenth
|
| 38 |
+
Annual MIT Mystery Hunt" entry in the 1999 IAP Guide is: "And why does
|
| 39 |
+
it seem like the loot is more than just the coin?"</p>
|
| 40 |
+
|
| 41 |
+
<p>So the answer is <strong>LOOT</strong>.</p>

<p>As hinted by the example (4112 → fluoxetine aka Prozac), look up
|
| 10 |
+
the numbers in the Merck Index (12th ed.) They all reference either
|
| 11 |
+
single elements or 1:1 compounds of two distinct elements.</p>
|
| 12 |
+
|
| 13 |
+
<p>Take the atomic number of each element and index into the alphabet.
|
| 14 |

Random anagramming gives the answer FREQUENCY.</p>

<p>As hinted by the example (4112 → fluoxetine aka Prozac), look up
|
| 10 |
+
the numbers in the Merck Index (12th ed.) They all reference either
|
| 11 |
+
single elements or 1:1 compounds of two distinct elements.</p>
|
| 12 |
+
|
| 13 |
+
<p>Take the atomic number of each element and index into the alphabet.
|
| 14 |
+
Random anagramming gives the answer FREQUENCY.</p>
