Scanning quickly, I see:
Triple Demons of Compromise
Horrible Hopping Hindsight
Gorgons of Hate and Malice
Overbearing Know-it-all
Gross Exaggeration
Threadbare Excuse
Terrible Trivium
Gelatinous Giant
Ugly Dilemma
======================================================
Evil Empress Notes on Fortress Construction:
#2. My Command Center will have a heavily guarded room
at the bottom of a 100 story subterranean shaft that
will contain a sophisticated bus-sized computer with
a fake encoded plan, no external link, and no real function
whatsoever. The real command center will be a satellite-linked
laptop on a card-table with a folding chair at the top of the
elevator shaft, behind a door marked 'standpipe valves'
accessible through the unlocked janitor's closet.

Hi, a post from the intrepid heidi tandy over on the "real" list
reminded me of a question I've been meaning to ask. Does anyone have a
copy of the Phantom Tollbooth sitting around where they can actually get
to it?
For some years, I've been trying to recall the name of one of the
monsters that pursue Milo et al. as they run down from the Mountains of
Ignorance at the end. I keep thinking the Bombastic Aghast, but that's
Seussian, and every so often, this puzzle drives me to distraction. Can
anyone save me?
