Twice as Nice

◆ · By Chris Derrick · Published 2022-07-13T02:59:46.610Z

The theme is fairly basic and I'm sure has been done in some version many times, but I think this a fun introduction to thematic quirks in puzzling. 27D is one of my all-time favorites, so I intentionally worked his name in there. - CD
