Daily Cryptoquote

Our local daily newspaper has a puzzle page and my girlfriend enjoyed solving the "celebrity cipher", a kind of cryptogram puzzle that featured a quotation by a famous person. Then the newspaper dropped that puzzle from their puzzle page. Alas, much chagrin and dismay was heard. So being the good boyfriend programmer I created a replacement for her. I call it the Daily Cryptoquote. It's a cryptogram puzzle that arrives daily by email (sample below).
The really cool part is I created a web page with an interactive puzzle assistant. When you replace a letter in the puzzle if propagates through the puzzle for you. It greatly reduces the tedium of trying different solutions.
