Oddly enough

quote:
This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out.

What is unusual?

The letter "e", which is the most common letter in the English language,
does not appear once in the long paragraph.

I figured it out before I read Hawley's spoiler.

Not that it matters.

Actually, having seen that paragraph well over ten years ago gave me a hint.

Yes, it is easy to say it after it's been posted.

Doesn't mean it's not true. Doesn't mean it is. Doesn't really matter either, so who cares?

And yes, I'd seen it several years ago as well.

That's not the real answer. There are 19 words in that paragraph that are two letter words. 19 is a two digit number. So there are 20 two's that are related to this paragraph. This means that 19 to 20 year olds should fight for our country. It's a subliminal message,dawgs. And I am afraid.
