Because there are a limited number of
values for the score and 5^6 possible
inputs, there are a lot of apparent patterns
of correlation that look great for a while
but then turn out to be wrong. (I think
the "Gates" story echos this.) I did *not*
solve the puzzle quickly -- after looking
at it unsuccessfully a few times I finally
had a quiet, distraction-free session and
got it. Congrat's to all the "potentates."
