- madhatter5 2s · 2022-04-18T12:45:54.511ZWicked awesome!
- Thanks, Josh. I certainly hear that phrase a lot around here!
- Enjoyed it! Glad there was a solid click answer, after struggling with a few inferred options... And loved the inclusion of other thematic answers, like 73A
- Thanks for solving! I'm glad you caught 73A balancing 1A.
- Hmm...I got the answer from the inferred clues. Maybe I'm missing the actual metanism after all!
- Ergcat 20:12 · 2022-04-19T17:43:22.071ZHmmmm, me too ( got it by inferred clues)
- Ergcat 20:12 · 2022-04-20T01:08:10.093ZI see it now too!
- Hiss! Thanks for the puzzle despite Harvard being an arch rival to my alma mater. Go MIT!
- Darth 🤓16:54 · 2022-04-18T15:03:22.553ZLol. That was wicked good!
- michaelm 🤓2:48 · 2022-04-18T15:40:26.992ZErupting in, well you you know what... Loved the puzzle and the meta! Thanks Cap'n Rick
- Carolyn 3s · 2022-04-18T18:26:43.114ZThat was fun! Got sidetracked at first but finally saw the light. Thanks so much!
- markhr 🤓3:22 · 2022-04-18T19:43:19.770ZFunny puzzle-- enjoyed this one. Time for a Sam Adams to celebrate.
- Bbaack 🤓13:28 · 2022-04-18T22:25:55.346ZFun! Now I'm hungry for some clam chowda!
- Driving home from the gym this morning I thought I had it solved: I should just look for the names of accents (e.g., aigu, tilde, cedilla) in the grid. Well, that went nowhere fast. Picked the puzzle up again at suppertime and -- there it was!
- JM 🤓9:14 · 2022-04-18T22:41:09.665Z…The Michigan of the East.
- minimuggle 🤓9:36 · 2022-04-19T12:25:45.468ZGreat puzzle and wonderful distraction on train ride home from Boston thanks

- Wendy S HeadinHome 17:07 · 2022-04-19T17:38:33.266Znah ima be tackin’ dis way cuzza YOO. Tanks fuh nuttin.
- Ha! Thanks for solving, Wendy. And sorry for triggering that little speech impediment.
- Ergcat 20:12 · 2022-04-19T17:44:30.293ZVery fun! Thank you!
- Congrat's on a creative metanism, Cap'n Rick! First one I've seen like this.
- Teamdoubletow 3s · 2022-04-21T00:14:42.248ZLoved this! Thanks so much for the laugh!
