Has anybody else heard of this game? (It comes from the Match Wits With Mensa Omnibus Edition, if you'd like to know.) The basic concept is that, when you are stuck in traffic, you look for groups of three or four letters on license plates nearby (very common and easy to find). You then try to find a word which contains those letters in order. You can either 'require' the letters to be directly touching each other or simply be in order anywhere in the word. I often 'allow' myself to use the letters backwards in dire circumstances. As the book says, this game may seem simple but it is amazingly addicting!
