Meta Prompt
The answer to this meta is a place to stroll. You'll need to use a bit of "artistic license" while solving, as I did when constructing. But remember that in the end, spelling counts! (This one goes out to MaineMarge and the stern crew cultivators, which, as Dave Barry would say, would make an excellent name for a rock group; and also to my test-solver "blossom.")
