On 255 "No comment.. . . .

I guess the numbering can have changed by the time we cite it. He did say 256, which now ends in -Y.

I donʻt know how this got back on the screen as it now stands (ending in ". . .Boners"); I remember revising it to appear WITHOUT the subtitle (BonerS. . . is part, but not the end, of the subtitle.) I explained that the subtitle
ended in the same letter (t) ( as the main title, so it was irrelevant for the game purposes.
