      Depleted Depleted is a synonym for Low. After a single shot of medicine or drug you are high, when the high works out you are low. Highlight – high & light (antonym for high is Low) Drug- when medicine is abused Rate- tempo One- single or 1 Point- point of a needle So... Am I right?

        Alas no, you have actually over complicated it. Think of a drug, add a rate, like? one point.

                Well Done, change your Subject line to read SOLUTION! I will award 6 swagger points and a smugness bonus to you! :) Not only answered, but the solution is spot on!

                  How do you determine the difficulty? An algorithm? Or does it freely spill from your incisive mind?

                      You're probably better off getting someone reliable to do it. I'm 100% sure I would fuck it up somehow.

                        Well I only considered you because you a holophile, I would have asked one of the regulars but they like to solve them, ( I noticed you never have ( ;) ) and therefore would have been an excellent deputy). It is ok, though, I will ask elsewhere and explain your damnedable laziness as the result of youthful ennui!

                            Congrats by the way! 3000 posts! I will email them to you later, all you have to do is (actually it is only 8, I can do Friday, and I will be back on the Thursday Week!) Type them up and mark as CCC. Remember that the answer and the solution is required and award smugness and swagger points as you see fit.

                                  Well, the "holo" part of hologram comes from Greek for "whole". So I'm guessing holophile is someone who loves everything?

                                          Well, the "holo" part of hologram comes from Greek for "whole". So I'm guessing holophile is someone who loves everything?

                                          Ahhh, that makes sense. I did consider 'love of holograms' but dismissed it as not really practical with today's technology, we'll have to wait for star trek style holodecks. ;) Let down by my insufficient knowledge of Greek.
