All right I am just not getting this one tonight. I think I am doing everything right and my letters aren't making any word I am familiar with, TG anyone?
Saw the mushroom cloud, solved the first three letters and then kept trying an old Soviet nuclear facility as the answer. Finally went back and finished solving to get the correct answer. Duh!

I have never seen Tanga numbers need to wrap around. Am I headed down the wrong track?

Hmmm, I have a very similar puzzle to this one in the queue. Different enough though (I hope).

Overthought that one way too much.

I made the mistake of doing something else and anagramming that. Now the phrase "A Blackmail Frog" is stuck in my head. Heh.

Hehe, the background does indeed contain much NaCl.
Though I have one at my desk anyway, so didn't need it. :)

That's one of the coolest puzzles I've seen. Straight-forward with a small twist. Nice.
