    Ha! This is my kind of puzzle.
    • Capn Rick 🤓11:43 · 2021-11-14T13:28:27.805Z
      Nice one Will! Dino me!
      • Charles Montpetit 🤓1:23 · 2021-11-14T14:25:29.128Z
        In 30a's clue, don't you mean "verification", not "varification"?
      • THC 🤓5:19 · 2021-11-14T14:56:16.579Z
        Just right!
        • Meg 3s · 2021-11-14T14:31:15.983Z
          Don’t know why it took so long to do the obvious!
          • JM 10:08 · 2021-11-14T14:48:36.275Z
            Really fun! Didn’t even need a pit stop.
            • emmie 5:30 · 2021-11-14T14:47:50.140Z
              really fun !
              • LuckyGuest 3s · 2021-11-14T15:01:20.706Z
                Really clever idea and execution...
                • boharr 4s · 2021-11-14T15:41:40.501Z
                  Fun one. Thanks, Will
                  • Tyrpmom 5:15 · 2021-11-14T15:09:50.564Z
                    Nice. Thanks.
                    • Mike D 🤓7:13 · 2021-11-14T15:08:14.346Z
                      I really liked this meta! It mostly clicked right away but took me a while to put the three parts in the correct order (which also seems obvious in retrospect)
                      • David Plass 🤓5:03 · 2021-11-14T15:36:21.621Z
                        Nice, thanks for the puzzle!
                        • frostyjhammer 🤓1:26 · 2021-11-14T15:53:17.685Z
                          About my speed, thanks. Got the "over" and "under" pretty quick, but the "in" took a bit. Quite clever, and a nice change from the other two.
                          • Louis D 2s · 2021-11-14T15:22:46.183Z
                            Short and sweet

                              Enjoyed it!
                              • Chaddog 2s · 2021-11-14T17:06:51.425Z
                                Very crisp! Nice work, Will!
                                • MajordomoTom 13:55 · 2021-11-14T18:46:05.572Z
                                  back-solved the LI, the other two parts were pretty nicely presented. Not sure how you could more readily have those two letters, that made it "interesting" to hunt for. Nicely done.
                                  • whimsy 🤓14:33 · 2021-11-14T18:26:33.124Z
                                    Really liked this -- especially when I actually found the last little bit in the grid after I'd submitted! :o)
                                    • wendy walker 9s · 2021-11-14T18:31:31.837Z
                                      Thanks, Will!

                                        One of my fave Pandoras in recent memory. Clean, straightforward grid and the final meta step was fun to do.

                                              Fun puzzle, Will...brought back lots of good memories of road trips when the kids were young.
                                              • MARR71 4s · 2021-11-14T19:46:18.457Z
