Uni project...Da Vinci Code...

Ok guys, maybe one of you old school ninjas (and ofcourse our one magic one) can help me out...

In one of my engineersing courses I have to read the DaVinci code...(who knows why, since I am studying to be an electrical engineer, but I'm not complaining, I enjoy reading).

I have to make a physical clue that could fit into the book...(something along the lines of a cryptex for those of you who have read it)...not necessarily a safe like the cryptex, but just any clue, and I am fresh outta ideas...

all I can think of is a paper mache goblet with the letters of Louvre written underneath it...and thats a crap idea...

So please, can anyone help me with a few ideas?
I gotta have this thing made by Monday...and its Thursday night now...


this is a call for Help! I am rallying the forces, and hope to be met with enthusiastci resopnses.

come one guys, gimmie Ideas

How about a paper mache goblet with the letters of Louvre written underneath it.

thanks mate...thats a great idea!
Helpful git!

yeahhh, sorry bud, but i never read the book, let alone had to think about a project.

good luck to you though!

Maybe you could do something that somehow uses the book itself, like, I dunno, a clue that reveals the page number of a pivotal page in the book, or something... ah, just ignore me, I'm rambling incoherently again...

draw the mona lisa

I've studied Electrical Engineering, and I think the Da vinci code is about the possibility of JC having a child.........
But what's a Cryptex ?

Better you than me.

I've looked up Cryptex in the Oxford/English - Not there - what is it ?

It's a type of cylindrical container that is also a combination lock. Parts of it move and must be aligned in just the right way in order for the container to be opened.

Man, you just know everything, don't you?

My IQ is 162.

And I've had 53 years in which to accumulate all kinds of trivia.

Thanks - I live and learn

Dude, you should put all the trivia down on paper - write a book!

I wouldn't read too much into it. I found out today that this idiot kid in my class took the same test as I did and got a 125. Apparently, he's a "mathematical genius." Yeah. He's like 2 years behind in his math.

Online IQ tests are very very very very basic. They're not accurate enough to tell a true IQ only to give you a range inwhich to expect. I had to take one last year during my Sophomore year at Tri-State University when I was studying Mechanical Engineering. It was part of a University study to test the intelligence of the average student in each of the Universities offered majors. I scored a certified 149. Where as on numerous online IQ tests I've scored as high as 175. There's a big difference between sitting in a room by yourself with nothing but a pencil and a piece of paper and sitting at your desk where you have access to a calculator and other resources. If anyone has the chance to take a real IQ test I suggest it. It's quite interesting. One of my professors tried to get me to take the test for MENSA. I still don't know if he was joking or not...

hey rockon IQs are usually affected by age, they take off alot more if your younger
