ST. LOUIS - Unless you're hunting for them, the peculiar markers embedded in the streets of downtown St. Louis don't draw much attention.

For those who do notice, the words make little sense.

The shoe box-sized marker reads: "TOyNBEE IDEA IN KUbricK's 2001 RESURRECT DEAD ON PLANET JUPiTER."

The plaques, numbering more than 100 and found on dozens of city streets across the U.S. and in three South American countries, present a riddle that may never be solved: What in the world - or on Jupiter, for that matter - does English historian Arnold J. Toynbee have to do with filmmaker Stanley Kubrick ...
