      Short and snappy and fun! Thanks, Peter!

          High ratio of clever+funny to grid size. Also educational -- I'd never heard of FAYGO, and I often forget that 2 is a prime.

            Very nice! Wow 2 years ago. How'd I miss this one?

              Yup - much easier after the WSJ prime-themed puzzle!

                Tricky grid for one so small, but very nice payoff.
