I am surprised [i]Senor[/i] Leche, that you haven't gotten 56 Across...
-
What do you guys think about either 56 across, or 13 down. They are some doozies with little help from the surrounding clues.
-
A few people are saying that it's too hard, so I will answer one clue per day. Talk amongst yourselves and decide which you want.
-
Darn, looks like I'm only 3/5 hardcore.
-
i would like to do it but i am not that hardcore and i am not good at crosswords
-
I'm pretty close. There's just a couple of your clues that I can't get my mind around yet. [b]Damn you last four words.[/b] Grrr...
-
No solvers yet! And in the interest of fairness I can't answer that question directly RC Master. Fill in some of the clues around it first, maybe that will help.

Well, looks like I'll have something to do over this spring break.... that and GRAW.

Huh, this looks cool, and very hard. I particularly like 26 down. [Edited on 3/12/2006]
