Couldn't quite see it as a DD for reasons you mentioned. I think you had a comment earlier which was probably deleted, so just to clarify, it wasn't an objection to the clue per seBhalchandra Pasupathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11499336354527916373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-41235635120752141912016-05-19T19:21:22.347+05:302016-05-19T19:21:22.347+05:30Yes, indeed that was my thinking.

But what he prob means is that in a typical DD the two meanings must be quite distinct from each other but here they are birds of the same feather - not even of different colours. That may be a valid point.Chaturvasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00284780490945841507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-13223780105367567832016-05-19T17:59:40.404+05:302016-05-19T17:59:40.404+05:30Was shy = Ran short

Its cool and easy to use and definitely a value-add. As mentioned by others earlier, the color-coding of right and wrong letters is bit a of nuisance for solvers. Further today, it had a glitch when it kept showing the letter A in 4 Down (authoratAtive) as wrong, and was marking it as red in colour! After some trial & error found that it is expecting an E there.Sridharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15551970642778283523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-29096611112282839262016-05-19T11:07:32.492+05:302016-05-19T11:07:32.492+05:30'Shy' as in one shy of 100.'Shy' as in one shy of 100.Padmanabhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278629397479779173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-73078899780116917602016-05-19T09:49:08.164+05:302016-05-19T09:49:08.164+05:30several new references for me today.. lucerne mean...several new references for me today.. lucerne meaning as alfalfa.. ran short meaning shy..i.e if one aint shy, one would have external supplies? ha ha.. chilly powder as snow while a familiar clue nevva fails to raise a chuckle :) thanks CV ji :) Srividyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18158643858913977806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-40347960653928742832016-05-19T09:45:32.568+05:302016-05-19T09:45:32.568+05:30yes i suppose :) yes i suppose :) Srividyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18158643858913977806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-51764899917402506722016-05-19T09:43:22.171+05:302016-05-19T09:43:22.171+05:30Thank you :)Thank you :)Srividyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18158643858913977806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-79129419961336243132016-05-19T09:43:02.951+05:302016-05-19T09:43:02.951+05:30thank you colonel.. didnt realize it was the hub ....thank you colonel.. didnt realize it was the hub ..
