CROSSWORD #127

ACROSS LITE PUZZLE: [ THEMELESS MONDAY] 
PROGRAM: [Across Lite]

PROGRAM: [Java]

PRINTOUT PUZZLE: [ THEMELESS MONDAY]
PROGRAM: [Adobe Acrobat]

After giving it some thought over the weekend, I've decided to experiment with the Friday puzzles henceforth. Much like how Mondays have become more-often-than-not Themeless Mondays, I'd like Friday to be the co-construction/audience participation puzzles. (More often than not, because, you know, life gets in the way sometimes.) As a heads up, I'll be fielding suggestions from you on Wednesday, so, if you'd like to be involved, please follow me on Twitter or Facebook. Contributors with the best suggestions will be referenced in the Friday posts.

Also, thanks to Anne and Catherine from all the way down under for conducting this interview.

Share the puzzle. New one on Wednesday.
