Exactly: I've learnt a valuable lesson here: information comes in two types: what you see - and what you don't see. The thought of "Err, wait a minute . . . he's displayed quite a lot of 'info'., but he could (possibly) have shown a bit more. So what is missing? And why hasn't that 'whatever' been shown?" never crossed my mind. Reminds me of that famous quote by Donald Rumsfeld: "There are the things we know we know, there are things we know we don't know, . . . . ", etc. It's having the appreciation that the full picture is made up of those two parts which can really help solve brain-teasers, but that latter part is frequently overlooked. Some might sum it all up as lateral thinking.
Anyway, thank you Keith: I enjoyed the challenge.
