Like [[lunchboy|Lunch Boy]] and others, there is a story. 

April, 1984. 

I was (still am) in the Air Force reserves, participating in a Global Shield 
exercise where SAC pretends that Omaha goes up in a mushroom cloud and tries 
to run things from a small fort in Iowa. I was a brand new 2nd LT, and of 
course I was elected to run the Imagery Intelligence desk from 2000 to 0800 when 
absolutely nothing was happening for 12 hours. [[wn|W?N]] (Richard Weigmann) was 
a fellow reservist, who took pity on the poor 2LT with nothing to do for 12 hours, 
so he challenged me with some most remarkable puzzles. Immediately hooked, I joined 
in June.
