The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.

Not at all. I just leaned on Joe last night. He helped with the Excel and PDF files after his morning 4am (?!) hike.

Really enjoyable clues and grid. I have to take a break and teach a boring algebra class on Zoom, but I'll be back!

Waiting for confirmation, but I thought I was off the couch before seeing the parenthetical comment in Monday evening update.

Confirmed off the couch!
