Trivia Contest: Can you win without using Google?
Challenge: Explain exactly what I am referencing and where it comes from without using Google.
Hints: To be Frank, 655321 has to deal with Taylor, although this has nothing to do with the IVDP Seal of Guarantee.
Rules:
a. The guessing game ends at Midnight (US Pacific Standard Time) May 31st, 2006. The winner will be announced no later than June 1st
b. All entries must be placed in this thread
c. No email entries permitted
d. You must not refer to Google or other web search engine for assistance
e. All of the above
No further hints beyond the (4) above will be provided, so I wish all of you, best of luck!
The prize for the winner is 10% off of any of the 3, 2006 Harvest Trips ... which is worth far more than any (non-Nacional) VP in the past 43 years if used for either of the trips on the Travel Page. Of course, if used for the shorter 3 day trip, it is equivalent to a 1970 something, bottle. The winner's discount can only be used by that individual or a guest that comes along on the trip with them and is not otherwise transferrable.

Derek, that is what I figured as the 4 hints. I think Roy saw the Da Vinci Code Friday

All I will say is that Alex is the closest so far!
Derek, you have the four clues correctly in order.

The number is "as is" Fred, no coding. You have been reading or watching too much of the Da Vinci Code.

First 655321 is clearly not an important number in the meaning that it is no milestone or stuff like that. It is an identification number. This number identify the good Frank you are talking about. The good Frank must have spoke or write about Taylor somewhere on the Net that could be easily found with google :)
This is what I'd say, a guy named Frank who is identified somewhere on a forum or website as 655321 (or cell number ) already wrote something about Taylor, or maybe its name is Frank Taylor after all
Another try... You picked a guy on the street and you asked him his name. Then you told him to write a six digit number behind a Taylor's Port bottle

No database can be used. I will have to take the winner at their word, that they did not use google or any other search engine at all.
Providing ALL details mentioned in the very first post, is the only way to win.
Who will be first?
I guess it will be up to who watches the movie. I never said this had anything to do with wine. 8) :twisted:
