Funny that ___HEAVEN and LENT abut. I had a slight slowdown because I tried Evite where ECARD belongs and, like Colum, entered ABASe off of the clue, and so didn't see HAWAII for far too long. I'm fine with sci-fi aliens being HUMANOID. Asimov did a nice job explaining why it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to try to create some elaborate species in his forward to "Nightfall," I believe. He said let's just all agree that they're vastly different than we are in every aspect, and that way we can get on with the story, which is the most important thing.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-67657783354352598582020-07-03T15:24:18.217-04:002020-07-03T15:24:18.217-04:00FWOE

Seemed like it might be almost a tribute puzzle to Mr. Bourdain, what with the ROMATOMATO, OYSTER, PENNE, UDON, and maybe even BUSBOYS. But probably not.<br /><br />Lots of good, tricky clues. Fun!
