You know lildude, these forums aren't a code in themselves, they're not THAT hard to look over.

2. Solve the 3 geometric problems of antiquity.
(a) Construct a square equal in area to a circle using only a straightedge and compass;
(b) Given the length of an edge of a cube, construct a second cube having double the volume of the first, using only a compass and a straightedge;
(c) Trisect an arbitrary angle into three equal angles using only a compass and a straightedge.

3. Integrate the normal distribution equation.

4. Prove the general Riemann hypothesis:
"Neither the Riemann zeta function nor any Dirichlet L-series has a zero with real part larger than 1/2."

5. Prove that the number 10 is a solitary number

6. Prove that no odd perfect numbers exist.
How can we prove them if no one else has been able to? o.O

You can take what I write however you want, I only wanted to prove a point, typically I don't enjoy it when people put "Here is the message you have to decode" and THEN tell people it's impossible, if you know what I mean. To have people try to figure out something they won't be able to anyway is a flame to the community, or something that's pretty damn funny. This would be the first option, though.

fiendishly simple my butt, thats cuz u made it...anyways, im guessing that the 1s and 0s have something to do with the letters...like a 1 is 1 letter and a 0 is 10 letters, something like that...and by 1 letter 10 letters i mean like 1 letter is A, 10 letters is J, etc.

Ok, so its difficulty revolves around its simplicity, so we must figure out the easiest starting point...The Y! The letter Z doesn't appear in many words, and never appears in words the size you have in the code. The letter Y, however, can fit into almost any single one of those numerical sets. Hence, the answer is apparantly easy to find once you locate a Y.

I'll tell you what let me post some binary up in here except I don't use ASCII I use EBCADIC decode this for some fun
for ease of reading it is in dump format

11000111 11001000 01000000 11001000 11000000 11010011
11000111 11000100 11000000 11100001 11000111 11000100
11011000 11100100 11000000 11010101 11000000 11011000
11000011 11100111 11010101 11100011 01000000 01000000

I want you to note, YOU said it was impossible. I said it wasn't binary, which is in fact, correct.

also, it is binary, but not letters, how many times do i have to say this do-do birds, after the binary comes numbers, after the numbers comes letters!

sheesh
