Agreed! Not overly challenging, but well-constructed and very clever.

I did not know that was a word. But I am glad it is. Also glad to be beamed aboard (well, not yet, but I will be). Because I'm still lost on WSJ.

Waiting on a board update. Pretty straightforward except for a big rabbit hole that I was warned out of.

Edit - #66

Wihtout [redacted], unsolvable. With it, a Week 1 or 1.5. I had to go to the OED to confirm.
