There are technically 2 spellings for the answer - but let's be formal tonight and use the proper one, please!

[4] I must be answering the first step wrong because I'm getting anything I can recurse on.

Nevermind, got it. :)

well I am doubling letters and no luck so maybe I have the entire word wrong but I didn't think so

Ah, I hate when my brain doesn't work! I had the answer so long ago, just didn't realize it.

I know what the question is. I know who is in the picture. Yet, I have no idea what the answer is. I tried to answer the question asked, but nothing worked.

I've got a question, but no answer to the question that I can come up with seems to apply to the puzzle.

[17] and [18] - Never forget the theme/subject of the puzzles - it will come back to bite ya.
Oh, and spelling does count.

Good one! I should have done it earlier - just didn't have the time to write it all out. Came in 125th almost 6 hours after puzzle was posted!

Thank you for acknowledging what I was thinking in the note. I agree with your position on the spelling, I'm jsut so used to the alternate pronunciation that it took me about 10 extra minutes to solve.

Great puzzle though!
