I am looking for folks that might be interested in helping me solve a puzzle. I was working on it off and on for years, and someone suggested I learn perl as a way to make progress. I learned just enough perl to know what might be done, but really would benefit from experts contributing.

The trick I think may lay in craftiness with regular expressions, or it may not. In any case, I'd welcome your ideas, or interest. If I get a few people interested, we could do a google hangout to discuss possible directions. Take a look at how I've laid out the problem, see if you might want to collaborate or please do pass it along if you think someone you know might want to get involved. simplemathteam.wordpress.com

Thanks!

Ali
