My wife has been talking about this game she use to play in a "Gifted and Talented" class in 6th grade. It still bugs her today that she never could figure it out, but everyone else could (she's thirty now!) After hearing about this for a dozen years I decided today to get online and search petals around the rose and found your site. 2 guesses later I had it (yes, I swear I got it in 2- probably because I have been running solutions in my subconscious for twelve years.) Now the problem is that I gave her the web address so she could overcome her self-doubt and she is more frustrated than ever. After reading other post on this page I'm going to go into our room and tell her that the smarter you are, the longer it takes. She doesn't know how many tries it took me because if she knew I would probably be sleeping on the couch. I can't tell her the solution because I know I would be on the conch if I give away the secret. Please pray that it comes to her soon!!! Also, I don't think I'm a genius because four Christmas seasons ago I got a wooded puzzlethat traps a wine bottle in. I lost the instructions for how to put it together, let alone take it apart. Maybe in another eight years she'll get online and find the solution. God Bless
