A "knockout gas" could mean an anaesthetic. Either that or the Princess is keeping up with world events (first result on Google).

leaving, repectively, so and mean from their texts. (do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti, do) and (median, mean, mode)

And the "Do, Re, Mi" song from The Sound of Music claims another victim. I believe that the fifth note in the solfege scale is "sol," not "so."

Googling for "npefm eftlupq" yields a bunch of PDF documents. Anyone speak post-script?

If it helps anyone:

Sounds like mom

Sounds like kiss ("kiss 2 <points at feet>" isn't valid input Wink)

Sounds like fairy

especially as I don't pronounce things the same way as you guys:)

According to this reference page, the "l" of "sol" is optional.

Ok try this:
1,1 sounds like mom: Bomb?, nom?
1,3 sounds like fairy: Cherry?, guerre? ferre?

Nom de ferre? The name of Iron?

Probably trout, but the first link on Google goes to a 13-page pdf about virtual reality systems.

Sorry, but in french, "Iron" is "Fer", not "Ferre"

and it doesn't rhyme with fairy.
Also, in "nom" you don't pronounce the "N", so it doesn't rhyme with mom.

It's chloroform. But that's a liquid, not a gas.

DESKTOP MODEL Very Happy

Edit: Yeah, I suppose it helps if I explain it. Use the letter immediately preceding each of the letters in the two apparently nonsense words. ROT-1, if you will.

Wabe is a word invented by Lewis Carroll and used in his poem Jabberwocky. In Through the Looking-Glass, Humpty Dumpty explains that a wabe is the plot of grass around a sundial.


Humpty Dumpty, you say?
