    I really liked the idea that you used of the system crashing I never really
    thought about it like that. This idea of crashing reminds me of the idea from
    Mary Anne Vincent and overloading a computer with too much information. I
    think with respect to the riddle once someone has figured out the message and
    understands it then they go into a comma. At the same time someone can read
    the message and not understand it, and they will not go into a comma. Very
    interesting.
