I like it!#2: Michelle Jones (lizzieb4041) on Nov 22, 2011 [SPOILER]
Nice puzzle. At first I thought it was a phone booth and a cell phone!#3: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Nov 22, 2011
where the digital clock is showing the time of 1:17 (white on black) i kept seeing "Ab" in the reverse (black on white)#4: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Nov 22, 2011
I had originally done this puzzle when I did the other then and nows but for some reason did not publish.#5: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Nov 23, 2011
Nice,i like it Brian.:)#6: Teresa K (fasstar) on Nov 23, 2011
Bugaboo, I saw the same thing until I read your comment. :-D#7: Susan Duncan (medic25733) on Nov 24, 2011
Good puzzle#8: Edith Clark (eclark) on Dec 14, 2011
I love it. I'm glad someone else didn't see the 1:17 right off. I stared a minute and when it came into focus it is so clear. I love these puzzles and waste way too much time here. Has someone done a study to prove this is really good for our brains? It surely is.#9: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Dec 14, 2011
I recall that we had a discussion strand about other puzzles. People here do A LOT of puzzles.#10: Teresa K (fasstar) on Dec 14, 2011
Puzzles that give you that "Aha!" moment when you solve them have been found to stimulate the right temporal lobe. If solving crossword puzzles are good for the brain, then webpbn puzzles must be even better! :-)#11: Edith Clark (eclark) on Dec 16, 2011
I will agree this must be even better--I hate crosswords. :) I don't know enough words--my vocabulary is too small. :) This is so much fun it's good to think it IS good for us--whether it is or not. Have you ever been to lumosity.com? They have brain games and claim they are good for you. I only play the free ones.#12: Susan Nagy (susannagy54) on Sep 2, 2016
I like all sorts of puzzles. Generally speaking, a "new" type of puzzle is good for you because it makes you think. I have been to lumosity -- and the first two or three exercises were okay, and then there was one that either I didn't really understand or wasn't explained well and I did not "pass". I was not allowed to continue until I "passed". I quit. That gave me more time for pbn's, scrabble and sudoku -- the really important things in life -- LOL!~!#13: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Sep 3, 2016
:D#14: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Oct 13, 2017
I just re-solved my own puzzle and said to myself "Ab?"#15: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Oct 13, 2017
LOL#16: Carol Brand (KarylAnn) on Oct 13, 2017
I didn't see what Teresa was seeing either until I squinted at the time and then could see the white outlining the A and the b. Fun puzzle!#17: Ga Hendrick (GaHendrick) on Oct 14, 2017 [SPOILER]
Thanks for the puzzle. An interesting juxtaposition of the "modern" clock.
