@Jabaluck Cute but dangerous to save the reveal for the 20th (or so) tweet. I suspect the hazard rate for reading the n+1 tweet is quite a bit lower than for the n tweet.

A "Ph.D. economist ... returns to his university for his class's 50th reunion. He asks if he can see the most recent Ph.D. generals exam. After a while it is brought to him. He reads it carefully, looking perplexed, and then says, "But this is exactly the same as the exam I wrote over 50 years ago." "Ah yes," says the professor. "It is the same, but all the answers are different."'

@tbarson49 Yes, it is sad. We were in Seward a few weeks ago and they marked the location of Exit Glacier each year for many decades and the difference was stunning.
