"Chemical Change" - February 26, 2021
This week's contest is titled "Chemical Change" by Matt Gaffney
The answer to this week's contest crossword is a famous chemist.
Good luck with the grid and the meta
A side note, I will be out photographing eagles catch fishing tomorrow. If they cooperate, the Friday noon report will be late.

Once again, grid 1/3 done and I know the meta. I’m glad WSJ is getting lots of new solvers, but I’ll be happy for some more challenging metas next month.

If I'm around, I am willing to join the Muggle Zoom room at other times to lend a hand to those in need.

Ashore. For once, my preliminary guess before starting the grid was correct!

Very nice. Tougher grid than meta for me!

Stay safe and well everyone!

On shore. Would be pretty embarrassing if I wasn't, given what I do for a living.

On shore!
Woo-HOO! I have lanDED on shore after eMERGing from the icy waters. I saw the mechanism for the ANSwer partway through the grid and quickly got to work. Careful as you come ashore--I fear that the record crowds over the past few weeks might be leading to some beach ERosion and the footing is a little unsteady. I'll have a flashback to college days and have a hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps.
