I didn't remember that bit that the idea for "GNU John Dearheart" was created by his father.  The first we hear of it, I thought, was when Princess is on the lucky tower, she discovers the code and asks about it, Granddad fiercely tells her just to pass it on as directed.  "We" keep it moving in the overhead, Granddad said.  Right?  Can someone reference where the phrase was created by John's father?  I'm happy to be corrected!  This just seems off to me...

"Created by his father"?

I didn't remember that bit that the idea for "GNU John Dearheart" was created by his father. The first we hear of it, I thought, was when Princess is on the lucky tower, she discovers the code and asks about it, Granddad fiercely tells her just to pass it on as directed. "We" keep it moving in the overhead, Granddad said. Right? Can someone reference where the phrase was created by John's father? I'm happy to be corrected! This just seems off to me...

Not mentioned in the explanation to Alice in Tower 181, anyway. I don't recall the suggestion. --Old Dickens (talk) 17:02, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
