crabbels CASE Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

The Rat: Time for this to end. For those perplexed by it, start with the anagram crabbels = Scrabble and then look up Scrabble notation on the web. There is only one solution that meets the notation rrequirements, and that leads to an online site... which unfortunately is no longer accessible due to a change at Yahoo. Anyone who must have the full solution, contact me through email.
