May Puzzle is Now On Line

 Greetings!

A new puzzle is now on line. Let us know if you solve it; send us the mystery entries and extracted phrase.

Because of the meltdown we experienced in March, many things are still amiss and will take time to correct. For instance, hints for all past puzzles were lost. Restoring them would be a long and tedious task, so email me if you want hints for a specific puzzle, and I'll send them to you forthwith. Same for any other problems you run into. It's a lot easier to correct things as needed than to undertake a full revision of the archives. Thanks for your understanding and patience.

Acknowledgment: I am grateful to Kenny and Jennifer Schiff for conceiving and designing this web site, and to Kenny and Michael Pekarek for technical support. I am also grateful to Kevin Wald for taking on the role of test-solver. It's thanks to him if this month's puzzle is free of errors, but if there are any, they're entirely the responsibility of yours truly, John de Cuevas.
