Yeah, I considered but didn't try either of those.  I assume "livest" was ok.

But it is.  That's why you quoted it, isn't it?  I don't get it.

Well, livest is bad grammar -- should have been liveth -- but Alan 'forgot' to provide an aitch just like he 'forgot' to provide an eff and allow three-letter words. So although a single elf could not get in, a group of two or more could!

TRex, I just read your post. I realize I may be exceptionally thick but I don't understand it at all. Am I missing something?
