All right, for those of us who solved it quickly, what’s the shortest sequence of numbers 1…n which can be made to come to 100 by the procedure they’re talking about? (Clearly this is 9 or less.)

Also, is there a solution for 1234567890 that is shorter than the trivial expansion of the one for 1…9?

Or as an offspring of mine shrieked when I was talking two rooms away to its grandmother, 'What do you mean, ears like frigging satellite dishes?!'
I rested my case and quite possibly necked a fair amount of sherry :wink:

They haven’t put out puzzle number 2 (though we were right about #1), so here’s a Chacoan Peccary.

Contemplating either mischief or mayhem, it’s hard to be sure.

Yes. They did put today’s puzzle out on Today, this morning at about 6.45am. I was driving at the time, but it’s here also.

Got any pickles to go with that Chacoan Peccary.

Shut up, you Horrible Creature. It is a Friend Peccary not an Eating Peccary.
