At last all those college electives in film appreciation, my netflix subscription and late nights in retro art theaters have paid off.

Plus, I have just justified to my wife watching TCM at at all hours of the night or day. (Of course it doesn't help at all with any of my ex-wives, they still don't get it).

Dear Pete,

Understood! Great job on our little puzzle!

Sincerely,
Rush

Congrats Pete!
