Absolutely great. How did they teach everyone the code? I suppose there wasn't much to distract them, but how did everyone get the message that the alphabet was arranged in a square?

I think Bob already had the intellectual curiosity to dive inside his mind and be constructive when his circumstances changed. This is so inspirational and puts your life into perspective.
