Phiniac Rugged Pyrex Tank Riddle Contest

[pwyll]

I never heard of Mr Kelly (or any version) before this contest. Others may or may not have. But the answer is very easy--it's a puzzle that relies on being so obvious that you miss it. Do not over think it, and do not make any assumptions about how you should arrive at the answer.

And remember, Mr Kelly likes Bobby but doesn't like Robert at all...

Believe me, I know how that feels. But this really is a case of being so obvious it's hidden.

Get it out of your mind somehow, so that you're not even thinking about it in the back of your head, and then come back to it when you can have "fresh eyes." This is one of those things that if you get started on the wrong foot it doesn't matter how many times you change direction--you've got to look at it in a different light...

So you learned of Mr. (Mrs.) Kelly when you were a child. It seems everyone else already knows the answer so am I the only one with a deprived childhood who has no clue who or what Mr./Mrs Kelly is?

You are by far not the only one who has not figured it out. And I absolutely promise you I have driven across country with some of the smartest people I know and the person in the car with a doctorate was the only person who did not figure it out... Your not stupid, you along with several others just have missed it. Keep watching and it will eventually smack you in the face! You will be in the shower and suddenly have a "that's it moment"
