Here's my humble submission:
on doIt
put the ticks into startTime
put fld "element" into gorp
repeat for each line l in fld "words"
put "Yes" into myAnswer
put l into myWord
put myWord into daWord
repeat 5 times
put char 1 to 2 of daWord into anElement
delete char 1 to 2 of daWord
if anElement is not in gorp then
put "No" into myAnswer
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
if myAnswer contains "Yes" then put myWord & return after
finalAnswer
end repeat
put the ticks-startTime into totalTicks
answer totalTicks && finalAnswer && the number of lines in
finalAnswer
end doIt
Did it in 2 ticks and found 23 words :)

Sorry if you get this 3 times - but I haven't received the ones sent
earlier and am thinking something in there triggered spam detectors
or something. :)
