QUESTION: "The following simple substitution cryptogram, in the form of a rhyme, can be easily solved.
"18-15-19-5-9 1-18-5 18-5-4
22-9-15-12-5-20-19 1-18-5 2-12-21-5.
20-8-9-19 3-18-25-16-20-15-7-18-1-13
23-1-19 4-5-19-9-7-14-5-4 6-15-18 25-15-21."
MY ANSWER: "Roses are red, violets are blue. This cryptogram was designed for you." (1=A, 2=B, 3=C, etc.)
ACTUAL ANSWER: "Roses are red, violets are blue. This cryptogram was designed for you." (A=1, B=2, C=3, etc.)
CONSENSUS: Seriously, Mensa calendar? Again? I'll let this offense slide on the grounds that it's a holiday, but one more occurrence of such patronizing child's play and I might start to lose respect for you.
