Makin' Bacon

We looked for famous people who used ciphers (based on Michael's clue regarding Caesar).  Came up with Bacon, which worked to get us "Getting so close." There's another that Eleanor's doing now.

When we told MIchael triumphantly that we'd found Bacon, he asked if we'd liked his quote.  Huh?  He said blithely, "I thought you looked up the quote I gave you from Bacon -- the one about trying and succeeding and that sort of thing." Doh.  We had to confess to having used a relatively brute force method.

Thanks to Michael's comment, James has just run off to the giardinetti and we have corrected our number of lamps to 10.
