For both Theys, if not the same, H/A/M? If not human, animal? Plant? Anything living?

No and this is a little difficult to explain without giving too much away so I'll simply say that They 1 contains two things as does They 2. The four things are all the different components of an overall set of things. For both Theys, if not the same, H/A/M? No If not human, animal? No Plant? No Anything living?

A science experiment? Are they two sets of data? Equal in terms of monetary value? Weight? Mass? Size? Are "they" tangible?

Yes well done A matrix? No A science experiment? No Are they two sets of data? Depends on your definition but I'd say no Equal in terms of monetary value? not monetary but they have an equal value Weight? Mass? Size? None of these Are "they" tangible? No Excellent questions Fishbones (Fishbones) New member Username: Fishbones Post Number: 23 Registered: 3-2011 Posted on Tuesday, April 12, 2011 - 11:50 pm:        Thanks! Maybe we think on the same wavelength. Are variables involved? Exponents? Square roots? ...I think my insight might have run its course, however!

Roman numerals relevant? Arabic numerals? "Eleven plus two = twelve plus one" relevant (both as a math equation and as an anagram)?

Operational signs? Roman numerals relevant? Arabic numerals? "Eleven plus two = twelve plus one" relevant (both as a math equation and as an anagram)? Not only relevant but also the ....... **************SPOILER************** I was using this puzzle to share with you my favourite anagram i.e. Eleven Plus Two is an anagram of Twelve Plus One. I knew this would be a quickie but not that quick. Kudos to you Balin Peter365 (Peter365) New member Username: Peter365 Post Number: 3403 Registered: 1-2007 Posted on Wednesday, April 13, 2011 - 10:29 am:        Should mention that the word strangely often points to an anagram in cryptic crosswords hence it's use here.

There's a ton of websites out there with awesome anagrams. I've always liked the one of the first part of the Hamlet soliloquy. And thanks for the cryptic tip. I'm still not very good at them, but trying to improve.
