Consider the following list of sentences. Each sentence contains
a hidden element. Together, the elements from each sentence will
form an obvious pattern or connection to a common theme. To solve
this puzzle, you need to:
- Discover the hidden elements in the sentences below and deduce
the theme that binds those elements together.
- Rearrange the sentences into their appropriate order based on
the theme.
- Two sentences do not fit the theme perfectly.
Eliminate these sentences so that you have a re-ordered list of
ten.

order. For example, if the final sentence order is FHLACDBGEJ then
F=0, H=1, ... J=9.
