Todd, you give up too easily. Keep plugging away!
GOOOOO Todd!
I can't say much without it being a spoiler but this is the type of Shenk puzzle I can't solve - there was one sorta similar (I think) earlier this year and although I see all the components - I can't get to the end. I'm going for a run - maybe I will feel better about it after that.
