Meta Prompt
Inspired by MGWCC #715 "A City of Puzzles", the meta answer is a title associated with Elvis.
Back in February, Matt Gaffney’s puzzle for his weekly contest (MGWCC #715) was “A City of Puzzles.”
Inspired by Matt’s title, Jay Livingston and I created our own puzzle of cities, a puzzle with a completely different mechanism.
