Richard lives close to me as I am in Westlake Village. Since I also submitted the correct answer, perhaps I have earned visitation? Might be the closest I ever get.MikeMillerwsj wrote: ↑Tue Sep 27, 2022 9:54 am The contest answer is MOVIE. Add the domain name extension to each of the five “Find them online” sites, then subtract one letter and anagram to get a grid answer: NAVY.MIL – M = VAINLY; PETA.ORG – O = PARGET; SENATE.GOV – V = STONE AGE; PINTEREST.COM – I = CONTRETEMPS; BROWN.EDU – E = RUBDOWN. The subtracted letters spell the contest answer.
This one was tough! (Stumped us at puzzle HQ.). We had 697 entries, with 63% correct--lower than our usual 75% but impressive in this case.
Incorrect answers included DOMAIN(S) (34) , GE.COM (22, see intriguing logic for that in entry above this one), YAHOO (11), SITES (9), and lots of others in small numbers.
Congrats to this week's winner: Richard Buckley of Woodland Hills, Calif.!

For the spreadsheet people...Is this the longest delay?
The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.

Not a spreadsheet person, but there were some very long delays at the start of the pandemic. Quite understandable.
