"Sylvania" is Latin for "Woodlands," the most recent clue contains French, and the current signature has Spanish. I did Thermodynamics, and I helped proctor Hot! Hot! Hot!. In addition to that, the Sassy also seems to both be well-learned in English grammar, and to have a large lexicon.


Except for the French bit, I feel like I'm being framed...

Protects were made yet again, and it was yet to be seen if it would be enough. As TheCrazyChemist was walking home, he got a call from lindsmaurer, explaining frantically why he should put JoeyC under constant guard. It turns out, it was the right move–it prevented Joey from stopping by his favorite drive-thru where I was lying in wait. Congratulations, I guess.

Since you've been successful with my convoluted puzzles, here's another one: irxu eloolrq rqh kxqguhg wkluwb-wkuhh ploolrq vhyhq kxqguhg hljkwb-rqh wkrxvdqg irxu kxqguhg iruwb-rqh.

I'll give you a starting hint:
First you will need to move Gaius Julius thrice, followed by a separation into two numbers that form a meaningful datum when put together.

Ok, caesar shifting Gaius julius with a shift of 3 gives dxfrp grifrp. The roman numbers I can get out of this are 510 and 1. Theodoric was crowned in 511 AD. Inputting Theodoric as a key gives "four billion one hundred thirty-three million seven hundred eighty-one thousand four hundred forty-one". I have no idea what that is tho. The sig quote is from Galileo.

Running the cipher text through a caesar shift of 3 decodes to four billion one hundred thirty-three million seven hundred eighty-one thousand four hundred forty-one (4133781441). Idk what the "separation into two" means though.

I think it refers to the 510 and 1. Those, put together, equal 511. "A meaningful datum."
"Datum is Latin for "it" and German for "date."

413 is a Massachusetts area code, serving the city of Springfield, encompassing 5 counties in total. The population of Springfield is 144867 according to worldatlas.com.
