I rarely post, so I hope Josh is reading this. This is hands-down one of the best puzzles I have experienced, and my most favorite Saturday puzzles of all time. It was a rightful Saturday, IMO - one where you at first feel the puzzle is disjointed and unwieldy, with very little filled in. Then, when you stick with it, and discover also that the Shortz editing wand has bestowed its wizardry, it all magically comes together. Thank you, Josh, for restoring my faith in the Saturday puzzle. You (and Will) have created a masterpiece.
