Agree with Meg! Smooth, easy solve, but still very well done. I enjoyed it.

I beg to differ with the "meta-ish" answer. The real prize is getting yet another marvel from HEX to solve!

Must be pretty easy because I solved the grid, but the directions are a cryptic step beyond.

I know what the letter are.
Not what they attach to.
Small potatoes.
It was fun to solve the grid.

I think it's okay to post this behind a spoiler tag. If anyone disagrees, please report to a moderator ASAP (haha)...

I am seeing this as a comment all over the place.
I solved the grid and figured-out the two letters. I haven’t even thought about what other entry they refer to.
I guess I am not done yet.

Ok I finally got it. The problem was I actually had the answer to this wrong by a single letter which had bothered me all along.
