MODERATORS
29:50 for the NYT. Had 8D wrong for the longest time and didn't notice it. Other than that, quite pleased with the solve. Certainly better than yesterday's.
Had time so I did the Netword and the Daily Commuter.
47A: Ayyyyyy!!!
Spoiler for Netword 47A:
Regarding Daily Commuter:
- 52D Exams: STANK?
- 53D Components of a battery: TESTS?
Did they accidentally switch the numbering? Even then, what's STANK supposed to mean relative to batteries? Didn't find anything online.
