CONSULATE is a nice longer entry, as is SIDEBURNS (even though I don't personally enjoy them in reality). Definitely an enjoyable theme, even though it didn't make for a COSMIC Thursday solve. ALANHALE is always welcome; he did a fine job in "The Giant Spider Invasion."Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-71901539716216517092019-10-18T07:38:43.389-04:002019-10-18T07:38:43.389-04:008:47

Still I needed crosses to remember him! <br /><br />I don't think I knew the definition of ADDUCE before today.Horace Fawleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04676932991883111336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-49033492924844126412019-10-17T20:41:28.637-04:002019-10-17T20:41:28.637-04:00I loved it. And I agree with Colum about the place...I loved it. And I agree with Colum about the placement of the theme entries.

I had nUDGE but realized as I was about to finish the puzzle by filling in ALANHALE that nFA wasn't a true degree. Whew!
