Brave New WorldFinal answer.  If so, Huxley was thinking of 2021 because that's where we seem to be headed.  (Delete if too political.  ) Wiki ... Brave New World is a dystopian social science fiction novel by English author Aldous Huxley, written in 1931 and published in 1932. Largely set in a futuristic World State, whose citizens are environmentally engineered into an intelligence-based social hierarchy, the novel anticipates huge scientific advancements in reproductive technology, sleep-learning, psychological manipulation and classical conditioning that are combined to make a dystopian society The phrase goes back to a much earlier source. Huxley, as so many writers, took his book title from Shakespeare. Miranda says it in The Tempest

Yup! Hooks. Well done Rita. Feathers have fine hooks. The angler has a hook and, of course, Velcro® has hooks. Rita, please take it easy on us mere mortals with your next challenge! My head is still trying to wrap around your last one. Easy you say!

It took me awhile, Rita. I wasn't sure if it was correct or not. I am baking today but hopefully will put something together in a bit. I already have an idea in mind. Stay tuned : )
However, if someone has something ready....go for it!

As the creator of the puzzle, it is not unusual for us to think it is easy, Pete. I'll have to think about yours |
