The answer to 244 really interests me and I figured I might as well throw out a guess, so here goes...

NEW CONTEST UPDATE
NOTE:
The two contests are now for
1) Who gets the most points for filling in the most blanks.
2) Who fills in the very LAST blank. (Not #525 which has already been filled in, but the last empty unfilled blank, whatever number that is).
We're no longer going to award a prize for reprinting the whole essay filled in. I'll do that (for free) when we're done.
The following blanks still need to be filled:
42, 44, 74, 129, 233, 292, 293, 408, 446, 510, 517, 518, 519
That's only thirteen left.
CONTEST UPDATE
The following blanks remain to be filled:
42, 44, 74, 125, 129, 133, 134, 233, 244, 292, 293, 314, 322, 327, 328, 408, 433, 444, 446, 490, 508, 510, 517, 518, 519.
That's only 25 left out of 525. Very good work, people.
Now the "bad" news. I'm cancelling the second part of the contest, the part where the first person to list the entire essay correctly gets a prize. I apologize, but the whole thing just became unwieldy, and I can't imagine having to go through twenty or thirty of the full-length essays just to find one or two words wrong in them.
Whether or not you think you have enough points to win the other part of the contest, I still urge everyone to keep guessing these last 25 blanks. First of all, I want this monster over. And second, I can't answer ANY questions about 2198 until the contest is completed. And third, well, it's just nice for everyone to be working together to solve the thing.
Thanks,
Greg
