          This reminds me of a discussion I had in English class about
          Lot 49.  A whole bunch of people were mad that the whole
          Tristero mystery wasn't spelled out by the end of the book.
          But that's just the point of the Tristero/lot49.  If the
          answer were right in front of us, we wouldn't have all the
          fun of looking and guessing and deciding what we wanted our
          own answers to be!
