@Nick S. In my work, my civil engineer colleagues use the term "rebar." Never heard them use "I bar."
Nice puzzle...but why does 11D solve to "toe" ??
@Jon Now that I am no longer working, streaks are simply informal mile markers of travel along the retirement highway. As well, I always do the Sunday by hand for the tactile pleasure of holding a physical puzzle and using a pencil. On a couple of occasions, I have copied my solve from paper to on-line to keep a streak going, but decided that was silly. Also, traveling/vacation has interrupted a streak from time to time. So the relevance of streaks for me is minimal.
Always interesting to see the diverse takes on a given crossword. I really liked today's and was surprised to read the many critical comments. That said, there have been days when I struggled mightily with a solve, disliked the clues and overall construction, but saw many positive comments. So it goes.....
@Mishka Yes...that's it! My thanks to you and Shari.
