If you rearrange the letters in 'iconoclast' you can get 'cola co cans'. Its hidden in a coke or pepsi can?

Since we're all here waiting for the clue, has there been any consensus about how we are supposed to go about being an iconoclast? I 'd like to think that such a big

word would also have a big meaning attached to it.

SAY CONWAY IN THE CLUE BUT WILL BEAR DOWN ON THE SPOT OF THE MEDALLION LIKE THE SPOT THAT I AM THINKING OF

RIGHT NOW!!!

togo.. the only thing i can think of for that is.. you have to be an iconoclast to go against the norm which would mean to me: not following the tradition of the

placement of the medallion in parks in the past.. I will probably get a lot of grief about some religious thing.. but those are my thoughts.. believe what you may!

Did anybody at Conway see the guy sleeping in the warming house??? it was around 6:00pm today

I'm starting to think that all of this digging in the snow is for nothing, what if it's somewhere above ground? Thus totally rejecting our previously established hunting

norms. Is that BS?
