Double-TeamedWas it me (I know, I know), or was this a bitch? Not only were there some arcane entries (actually I knew HACKWILSON right off, I’m proud to note, but I didn’t know PEAU, DRALI, TATAMI, or WITCHELM); but there was also some vague cluing. For example, RUSTEATEN from “Like many a jalopy†doesn’t immediately come to mind --- if your mind is as slow as mine. “Wheels in a cave†for BATMOBILE also took me awhile to get, and the two answers abut! “Bulb output†for IRIS wasn’t easy.
Some like it hard --- no puns, nothing cute, not even a theme, and I guess I'm one of them --- but much tougher would probably stump me.
