Heh.... I actually figured it out after the first couple... when I got to "Computer Blue", it all fit together for me.
Now for the spoiler.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I just started answering with the titles of Prince songs, and amazingly enough, it was working. So when it asked me to send it off I sent two things:
ECNIRP and NAMTAB Because unless it was an oversight, most of the songs were from the Batman soundtrack... but not all of them. So I wanted to make sure my bases were covered.
My E-mail did not bounce, however...
Very funny puzzle though.

Yeah.... The only problem, Lazarus, is that:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
He's actually PRINCE again... and was PRINCE when all of those songs came out...
But maybe they'll take your answer... that would be swell.

If you View Source on all the question pages, you will see that the correct answer is always a value of 1. The alternative selections will have values of 3 or 4.
This info may come in handy for future quizzes.

gulp... No big deal.. I don't even know if it makes any sense.
It said to send the letters in reverse order... so that's what I did.
I don't know if that's needed, either.

Since I'm here already I'm in the same town as the whois info - so I thought I'd give it a try.
It's the address and phone number for the "Truffles Four", arguably one of the swankiest restaurants in the city - in the lobby of the Four Seasons. Hehe. I'll have to remember that one.
