| User | WolfStar | | Topic | What is missing? | | Message | The following paragraph has something missing from it that is very common in the written language. Can you figure it out?
“How can this paragraph inform you of my aims? You cannot follow my logic. A thing commonly found in writing will not show up in this string of words. It is, without a doubt, a most difficult thing to spot. It is not a fault or flaw in grammar or punctuation. Within this paragraph, an art is found, a task that is hard to do, and tricky to sight if you do not know what it is you must look for. You cannot find this solution. Rack your brain, think with all your might, and try to find out what it is. What is missing from this paragraph? I wish you all good luck in your labors.”

Yes I know that now,I didn’t realize what I had said until after it was said.A big DUH for me. |
| User | Lightbringer | 2005-04-08 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | of course the word "the" wouldn’t have been used. It has the letter E in it. |
| User | Winterbliss | 2005-04-08 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | It’s the letter E and I noticed you never used "The" which is also commonly used when writing. |

| User | WolfStar | 2005-04-07 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | Same here... About the trivia and random stuff. Important stuff just drifts from my mind... |
| User | Lightbringer | 2005-04-07 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | no I just looked at it from a different perspective. It was something so obvious that most people would overlook it so that’s what I looked for. That’s just the way my mind works. All the important stuff like birthdays and important appointments kind of get filtered out with the trash and the trivial stuff is what sticks. It’s frustrating sometimes but it can be useful. |
| User | WolfStar | 2005-04-07 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | Damn! How’d you know? Done something similar to this before? |
| User | Lightbringer | 2005-04-06 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | It is the letter E
