Well, we've gotten one guess in and the quote is right, but there is an error in the author's name. I believe this disqualifies the guess, so we carry on from here. Is there any disagreement with my reading of the situation?

If my assumption can be shown to be false, please get in touch with me quickly.


Thank you.

[Fuzzy317]

The name was included in the puzzle, so guessing a wrong name disqualifies them (me) from continuing in the puzzle.
