      XPost: rec.puzzles       From: user4353@newsgrouper.org.invalid              I'm thinking of two men, unrelated to each other.       Can you identify them from the clues?       (No Googling please; These puzzles may have been posted before.)              (1) Each of the two men created a famous phrase that might be described        as a political prediction.       (2) Neither of the two men ever won a Nobel prize.       (3) Each of the two men had a half-sibling who *did* win a Nobel Prize.                     Hints:       Here are the two "political predictions" in an encrypted form:              ** Betray a sovereign? The newlywed overvalued is.              ** Appreciate cure; buffoonery conquer; rhetoric amuses.              Cheers,       James              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
