      Vasant : Can you send me also a copy? DEven I have not seen the online publication. In a city like Bombay, the so- called largely circulated publication of THE HINDU, one cannot get a copy of today's issue !

    Now in my old Bombay but not any more as I knew it ! Mumbai is a dying city what with the choas, filth and squalor ! Some one called it a Maximum city' yeah right ! Maximum number of people to create more filth to be dubbed as SLUMBAI ! On my way to New York by Monday, for the next six months.. Managed to solve the last three days by Lightning and Anon. Enjoyed both immensely for their creative wordplay.

    Yet tpo see today, Saturday's puzzle.

    Deepak, Happy landing in Bangalore ! I marvel at your tenacity for city- hopping ! Hasn't the train service improved a tad? I find the tations at least well- maintained. Solved many ET crossies, dspite the jerks and jolts of the train's trundle ! Intend cooling here in Bombay till I board my flight as the AC in the train has kicked up an allergy with bouts of sneeze and sniffles .

    Looking forward to participate in the oncoming ICL. Never a dull moments for crossword fads.

      I did Col. I know that MIT is in Cambridge, a suburb of Boston. But my question was that it is not the same as 'Cambridge University' ( one thinks of Great Britain only when Cambridge is mentioned) What is meant is university at Cambridge. Call it setter's privilege.

      Cambridge university is like saying Hyderabad company, to mean a company based in Hyderabad

    Colourful crossie today, courtesy Vasant!
    10AC took time to crack, even though enough crossings were available.
    Thanks Sunnet

    I did not know there were so many varieties of apples. Maybe because I am doctor!

    An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Dr Jaggu, different apples keep different doctors away - all those specialists.

    A crabapple would keep the crabby doctor away!
