Solution (by hand):
Who are you and who am I
To say we know the reason why?
Some are born; some men die
Beneath one infinite sky.
There'll be war, there'll be peace.
But everything one day will cease.
All the iron turned to rust;
All the proud men turned to dust.
And so all things, time will mend.
So this song will end.

Pink Floyd,

You have heard the message my friends have delivered,
but have you listened?

Perhaps I can be your guide, but I will not solve the enigma for you.

All of you must open your minds and communicate with each other,      
as this is the only way the answers can be revealed.

...

Who are you and who am I
To say we know the reason why?
Some are born; some men die
Beneath one infinite sky.

But everything one day will cease.
All the iron turned to rust;
All the proud men turned to dust.
And so all things, time will mend.
So this song will end.

Would you like to call "Augie" and ask him if he is wasting your time?

[philtherodent]

Nope; that's cool. Mr. H is entitled to his privacy.

None of it is a waste of time when I'm having fun.

[myriadsmallcreatur]

I understand: Attacked, now sustained and soon to be delayed.

You go out of your way to reveal yourself.

You must be underwhelmed with the response.

Or you seek to devour only a few.

Congratulations!

Boy or girl?

[philtherodent]

Don't know yet.

Once augie replies I'll update all the codes. The last one was a bugger and a half.

Ah, yes, of course: The Hamilton Enigma.

Almost certainly there are two buggers involved.

Not that there is anything wrong with that.

As long as it keeps you off the streets.

Maybe the solution is Ben Watts balls.

And yes, turns out to have nothing to do with the Enigma other than in name.

Your slight of hand and feats of ledger domain have been entered into the Akashic records.

Unless of course it suggests the method for deciphering the scrambled posts.

Nevertheless, Nicole, Naomi, Ben and I salute you, and declare today, and every day, "Groundhog Day".

Until we get it right.
