NOTICE TO ALL SITE-77 PERSONNEL

ISSUE: Recently an anomalous object was retrieved which, when left alone, is destructive to any structure in which it is contained. Due to various circumstances, the primary method of preventing this is to ask the object the answer to riddles. The exact mechanisms of how this works are not important.

In order to ensure continued containment, it is necessary that a database of riddles and other logical puzzles be prepared. Please respond to this bulletin with any riddles you might know that could be of use, particularly ones that are especially difficult to solve. All personnel are encouraged to aid in this endeavor.

- Head of Containment, Professor Jamie Regal

A good one I heard on a mission

I am what men love more than life, fear more than death or mortal strife, I am what dead men have and rich require, I am what contented men desire

Nothing

Hope it helps!
