Excellent puzzle! I’d point out the inclusion of tech giants META and TESLA along with APPLE, as a mini-theme (?). And SAW and WETS connecting to SPARROW, which in turn connects to PEWEES — a saw-whet is a type of small owl.
@Dave For what it’s worth, I thought about this in the context of a kid playing with rockets. I know I always said, “BLASTOFF!” when I was little.
Did anyone else initially have STEm instead of STEW for “Pot filler” at 60A? If that wasn’t an intentional misdirect on the constructor’s part, it probably says something about me.
@Tom I get where you’re coming from. For me it’s maybe 50/50. But maybe, like me, you don’t look at the title before you’ve solved the puzzle? Because of that I didn’t pick up on the Pig Latin theme until after I solved the puzzle and saw the title, and then went back and figured out the oddball fills.
@Sue It doesn’t, though, a nuclear power plant uses enriched uranium.
