    Thanks for a great puzzle.
    3D got me! NENES is Catalan for "girls"; I was expecting Spanish (niñas).

      Oh funny! Originally the clue was "Babes in Barcelona..." but then I didn't want solvers thinking they had to know Catalan. I guess it would've worked either way! Thanks for solving :)

        Thanks for the reply. Could you parse 3D please; I don't get the wordplay. Do they speak Catalan in Buenos Aires?

          Whoops just saw this comment — In Spanish, "nene" is a colloquial term for "baby" (or "kid")

        I was thinking nena first, which is pretty much the same as nene, but has to be a girl

        Nice, wish I was worthy of being around you geniuses

          Obviously not my official time for this puzzle (I streamed it yesterday), but I couldn't help but notice you changed the wording of 5A. It's still great, but I did like it more the other way. Great stuff here, as usual.

            oh whoops! Seems like I uploaded an older draft on here. It's been edited now. Thank you for pointing it out, and sorry I missed the stream!

            Loved this puzzle ! I got stuck and took a break and then the answer to 1A popped into my head. I was stumped on 3D for a while...very clever misdirection with capital !! Thanks for the puzzle!

              Some really great misdirection in these clues, nice work!

                Cool puzz. I'm not convinced by either "goo" or "revolution" as their respective indicators. "In revolution" or "revolutionized" might do it, but that would need a clue change of course.
