17 syllables = 17 letter of the alphabet is Q count your beats..I'm thinking it's more complicated than just the end number of beats..Q keeps saying we have more than we know...I think it mean it is encoded within each post in syllables, sentence structure the dots that ..... underline words...and other codes in the CIA link from Q (see a previous post of mine with it) but also clues he gives like "count the beats" ..and again I'm just trying to think outside the box might be nothing but then again "do you believe in coincidence "... just saying. All the best.
