Blast Radius Easter Egg Hunt

We had a Da Vinci Code-themed Easter egg hunt at work on Monday. I got to write the clues for what was probably the last event jointly organized by Blast Radius and XMetaL. My clues were hard, I hear, and it took more than 24 hours for all 10 eggs to be found. I wish we'd rewarded the clue-crackers by hiding iPods instead of chocolate.

Some required inside knowledge, e.g. "DEBUT HUE X" was an anagram of the printer named "Buxtehude." I know at least one person tried typing "DEBUT HUE X" into Google. Google was uncharacteristically unhelpful.

You can try some of the others. Answers are on Flickr!

1) What place can be described by: "A box of light with neither drape nor blind/ Where those who seek an egg will often find"? Answer

2) What group of people "walks up trees"? Answer

3) Where in an office would you start looking for: "Near the swinging blade, it rests.
Within a bed of white, it nests."? Answer
