Objects viewed through it appear inside out, for example: a box on a floor would appear as a box shaped hole in the floor.

I find it interesting that a couple of hours prior to hopping on the ABe train today.. I had posted about acedia..

is there an official story to how Tweleve got named?

From your "acedia" link

Intuition

"It is translated to apathetic listlessness; "

Yesterday evening I was trying to come up with a word that meant tired, and was looking at "list, listful, etc. " but didn't make it to "listlessness". I went to sleep with the question in mind.

I believe, that tweleve . org was started, to discuss the puzzle " A Treasure's Trove". In that, puzzle, the Table of Contents has a chapter "Tweleve" if I recall, and the font color for the "C" of "Chapter" is blue instead of black ( or something along that line ).

Is that what you were asking ?

Sorry, can't address quite a few of the interesting items in the forum, short on time lately.

Happy 4th to all.

Cap letters of the shown link, on the Lincoln Memorial cent ... RUD

Looking next to the steps on that view, the FG ( looked like FOG to me )

On your "autodidact", look in same position ... you get CLV ( 155 ?) ... shown next to log that is CLEAVED ... I was thinking of the word CLEAVE last night

To get a bit more specific, I was looking at the phrase ( the command / HEST ) from Fenn's poem

"Just take the chest and go in peace" , and reading as

" Just take the CHEST + LEAVE"

CHEST + LEAVE

= CLEAVE HEST

( It was not a random subsitution, but I was more pointing to the synchronicity )

Here's addressing the recent mentions by hayward and Happy Thoth, re: turning EAST for wisdom ...

The Olivia Branch / Axe head ( fasces ) looks to be identified with the outer letters EAST OF E (D) , or

E. of EAST

"The number itself contains superstitious elements that have given it its name: the number 666 at the heart of Belphegor's Prime is widely associated as being the Number of the Beast, used in symbolism to represent one of the creatures in the Apocalypse or, more commonly, the Devil. This number is surrounded on either side by thirteen zeroes, with thirteen itself long regarded superstitiously as an unlucky number. Also, it in total has 31 digits, which backwards is thirteen."

We’re too caught up in the frenzied celebration of our 10th birthday to write about today's product. Check out this refurbi- uh, classic write-up.

B4 3D (March 2013):Long ago, Zeus ordered his smith Hephaestus to build him a new graphics chip, and Hephaestus made a chip out of clay and named her 'Super FX'. Zeus gave her a 16-bit game console and sent her to Earth, but warned her never to use the console.

Super FX was very curious, and though she tried to refrain, one day she couldn't hold back and she played a game on the console. Suddenly, many three-dimensional graphics started flying out. She tried to push them back in the console but she could not.

The new graphics were called Lighting, Shadows, Anti-Aliasing, and Pixel Shading. They flew across the world, displacing all the fun two-dimensional games until only serious, graphics-intensive 3D games were left.

Super FX wept and wept, for she knew that what she had done could not be undone. Gone were the days of cartoonish graphics and simple gameplay, leaving only serious, graphically-intense games.

THE MORAL: Listen to Zeus.

One always has Hope
