Nick, look at last nights postings #5950 through like #6100 i think, around 8 last night...it will help you a lot re: the last few clues

these ideas have been kind of tossed around a lot...any ones about a tome..."one volume of a book of many volumes" i.e. the encyclopedia or a famous person?

bring the treasure home? these clues are extremely obscure...the next one had BETTER be more helpful, because nobody will have a clue until the last one comes

out pinpointing it, and they are running out of time! cclue 7 comes out tonight and it will help kick off WC wekend wioth a good ass clue to get the masses out

looking.

Snow blowers used at BC to get to the center of the playing field.

Newell is all smoke and mirrors; all the clues that point to newell are encoded...but none of the clues at face value have anything to do with newell...the coincidences

are uncanny!

Where can I find a list on the net of all the parks in St. Paul? How do the 9, 5, and 4 fit into BC and HP?

Maybe we need to look at where it is not and then narrow it down from there.

Stalion here, Hey BART.

Here's an interesting link for hte 549 clue to BC, just to pass on since you'all were asking about it. The medallion was found there in '95, which was 4 years ago. It's

a strech, but it makes sense.
