[factor-fiction]

Please can you clarify the letter/word count for 5 ( i don't get the four or twenty).
I think it's In the Year 2525

[factor-fiction]

With the OR 20 meaning it could be In the Year TwentyFiveTwentyFive

[spaldinglinc]

I am confused also I thought in the year twenty five twenty five but it does not fit 2 3 4 4 or 20

[HowardKennitby]

possibly 4 = 2525
or
20 = twenty-five twenty-five

[factor-fiction]

Sorry I thought I'd explained it, but perhaps it wasn't very clear
It can be either:
2,3,4,4--In the Year 2525
or
2,3,4, 20- In the Year twentyfivetwentyfive
