It's my first solve using Across Lite, which I enjoy. I didn't know that feature was available for a Windows laptop, but it is, so I'll use that from now on (for a computer solve). I did enjoy seeing some of the words that Horace mentioned (especially DIURNAL), and must admit that I didn't get AZORES until I had all of the crosses but the "Z." Also, I knew that 8D Org. offering group practice membership was either the ABA or the AMA. The thing that tipped me off was the cross of 14A ____ Avenue (Mets' community website) (AMAZIN). I'd never heard of it, of course, but knew that it couldn't be Abazin.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-59801115121114470202014-02-27T15:07:31.521-05:002014-02-27T15:07:31.521-05:0013:52.

You have no purchase, and then once it becomes clear, there's no interest any more. So, other than that... uh, yeah. Good puzzle. I'm also going to go on the record that YELLOWY is not okay. I mean... YELLOWY? I've never heard it, and I don't think I want to. Feeling crotchety today, I guess.Colum Amoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15026647589873845732noreply@blogger.com
