Have you come up with any words? You should have written the entire question. I Googled several words from question and came up with a five letter word I figured couldn't be right and gave it another try with slighly different wording and got same five-letter word. SO..... I googled that word and found it.

Dear Sleuth, If only I was as smart as you obviously are

Hmmm. Is that a nasty comment or did you find the answer? I can't tell.

dear starboy; people pay subscription fees for this quiz. Some of the questions are meant to be tricky and to require a fair bit of intelligent research. You will appreciate that it can be annoying to do the hard work and then see the answer given away for free. Often a polite request for a hint will produce some extra, if still cryptic, clues...
