Jean tore through today's NIFTY crossword so fast that she didn't even see the theme (as Einstein correctly predicted would happen to crossword solvers as they approached the speed of light), while Mike fell into all the TRAPS, and has a few SCARS to show for it.In today's Tip Tuesday segment, we observe that1. GURU ≠ Religious figure all the time2. SPOT = AD (a lot of the time)3. Leaving iffy squares blank, rather than hazarding a guess, makes them easier to spot as the grid fills up (and may therefore save time in the long run).We love feedback!
