Frank - you need a hobby
Technically, clue #3 ' Did you know that numbers can be alphabetized?' was bogus as it was the city names, not the numbers that were alphabetized - thought even more technically, the actual name of individual digits could be alphabetized, though they were not in this case.
So, we take half a point off for that...and I still would not have been able to figure it out - though I did, in fact, spend several minutes attempting to make sense of '8' being 'Eight' preceding '3' 'Three' and then '1' 'One'...etc.
My loose ties to logical numeric sorting - part of my Computer Science Coding experience - led me up that alley.
I'm easily confused these days...still have to get that check in the mail to that Nigerian Prince.
