It says YOU have to be an iconoclast. I think it means you have to go against the norm to find it. Just my two cents

DAN, it may have been found but we are trying to be optomistic and think it's still out there

The Rock

The only reason why i would think it is at highland is because it was there the first time it was hidden and because it is PP's aniversary, but look at clue 4!!!! but

there's VALUE as WELL as IN the NEW!!! i mean c'mon people.

Oh cmon your saying that god does go against religion. I dont think so its the Devil not god. Devil and God are complete opposites. I think me and my friends will be

the only people in Devils Den.

Devils Den is full of people. It is not there.

Those who think an iconoclast is a devil-LOOK at a dictionary. Many iconoclasts may have gone against religious beliefs, but that's not what defines an iconoclast. It

means one who goes against established beliefs, or the norm. AND yes the clue says YOU have to be one.

All, things said, everything points to BC at this point. See all of you there tonight who agree w/me, those who don't, good luck to you, but I think you're wrong

christopher campbell

And it was at B.C 4 years ago, in 95, thats where the 9 and 5 and sometimes a 4 come in

You know what. I drove by Newell this morning before school and not one person was there... not one. There is so much hype here though????

Why would the right fielder throw to third base before second? If there is a force at third, then it follows that there is also a force at second. As a baseball play, it

doesn't work. Unless the PP is using it to define an area, and I think it's too early in the game. I could be wrong, but I don't like it.

Lyon - Iconoclast unscrambled is not a lost coin. You still have an extra c that you haven't fit into your phrase. What does a lost coin have to do with anything

anyway?
