Location: Solve for X
X=F(|)+Sn(50)+(O)+char(21)th
X=Char(12)((D(A•B))+(1,3,5,7…)+char(15))
X=@+L(&)+Ti(S)

the only thing I can think of is Hearts in Atlantis but that don't really make sense. I don't see Hearts in the first line nor do I see in in the second line

Yikes! The answer is three separate places, not one phrase or title. Sorry about that. :(

Not sure I'm looking at this the right way...
X=Char(12)((D(A•B))+(1,3,5,7…)+char(15))
Char(12) is L ?
((D(A•B)) is ___?
(1,3,5,7...) is set?
Char(15) is O ?

Char(12) is L ? Correct!
((D(A•B)) is ___?
(1,3,5,7...) is set? Notice anything about that set?
Char(15) is O ? Correct!
You've made some headway, Maturins_Daughter. ;) :clap:

It's either odd or prime numbers... probably odd since 2 is not included.
How about El Dorado... but not sure how the Dor comes in

El Dorado is correct! :clap:
X=Char(12)((D(A•B))+(1,3,5,7…)+char(15))
X= L(D(logical OR))+(odd numbers)+O
X=L(DOR + ODD)+O
X=LDORADO
X=El Dorado
One more to go:
X=F(|)+Sn(50)+(O)+char(21)th

It's not "Fountain of Youth," is it...?

Why, yes it IS Fountain of Youth! :clap:
X=F(|)+Sn(50)+(O)+char(21)th
X=F(ON)+Tin+OFF+Uth
X=Fountain of Youth
3 Mythically-located Geese, 1 each to mia/susannah, Maturins_Daughter and John_and_Yoko! Well played, all! :clap: Thanks to everyone who played.

Damn, Gabe... you should write a book with this type of puzzle/riddle in it. You're VERY good at creating these things. I'd buy it...just to tear my hair out in a fun way!
:D

I loved this one...very cool idea, Gabe.
I was just too sober to be of any help.
