If you turn the photo upside down. In the area of the robe that supposedly looks like Manhattan island. There is an exact copy of the Statue of Liberty torch.
Wonbadappl
Maybe not an exact copy of the torch.....but its definitely a torch.

Too bad, you cannot play.
British Intelligence used a crossword puzzle in The Daily Telegraph to find code breakers during WWII. Perhaps "The Secret" was just a Cold War version of the same exercise.
Mr merit
It's not easy sometimes to read someone's tone or sarcasm in a couple sentences typed and sometimes it easy to see .alot of if people have spent thousands of hours or more on this puzzle .
myself I take what info that's relevant but I don't belittle any one .even when it seems crazy

That's exactly what a British spy would say!
Mr merit
Yup I got it how she could be perceived that way .but that's not her or her intentions.but how about my Columbia with an arch panel behind her head .no special skills to see .lol

So much for letting this page fade into oblivion.
Here's a great idea - instead of posting crappy comments, Fenix, offer something positive to contribute to the hunt. Having read old threads, you used to be able to do that.
PS - all my years at Fort Meade prepared me for this hunt.
