Bernoulli's Principle A long time ago in Cub Scouts we once had a lesson on why planes work. I boiled down to Bernoulli's Principle: Angling the wings of planes causes them to have different air pressure on each side, providing lift.

This probably has something to do with it.

Yeah, I thought it might be connected to that as well a while back so I tried Bernoulli, Bernoullis, Bernoulli's, BernoulliPrinciple, BernoullisPrinciple, BernPrin, Bernoulli'sPrinciple & a few others with spaces.
Nothing.

On a long shot I looked up the specs for the Spirit of St. Louis -- the airfoil profile name is "Clark Y" ... but that as well as omitting the space didn't work.
Edit: Various other airfoil shapes also failed.

Did you get a reply?
I unlocked the first post and sent in my email 2 days ago and still haven't received the clues to unlock the second post yet. Hopefully I haven't been squeezed out of the game...

Am I the only one who thinks Tharol is actually a 'bot?
*lots* of short, sometimes cryptic posts in a short amount of time (averaging about 30 posts a day for 3 months)...I'm just sayin'
No offense intended if not-

There's been lots of speculation about who, what, or when Tharol is

Just received second clue.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The second clue to Locked Password #2 is: think alliteration
edit: I don't think you guys are too late, she may just not be sending the first clue emails since she was sending in sequence. Either way the last two posts on page 2 are what we received before this new one.

Grrrrrr. I had the right PW on the first day! I was under the impression that it was supposed to be capitalized though.
Unlocked the 2nd post.
The Password for the 2nd locked post is:
