Title: Crossword Answers - Finally (a very long post) Author: frufamily@aol.com (FruFamily) Date: 12 Dec 1997 18:27:07 GMT Hey All, After finally discussing the permission to post the Answers to the Crossword puzzle with Mike here they are! They are in order with the only explanations being short descriptions for general understanding. If you need detailed explanations or have other questions then Fordy has asked that you ask him yourself by sending an e-mail to moxy@passport.com and he will answer you. He actually had been meaning to post these himself but was on tour for a while so was unable to. Ladies and gents this is a long post so bear with it please. Across: 1. White (goes with 12 across) 6.

Some I can't remember (I turned it in to Fordy the first week of September) or I never knew (they just fell into place), others I will let you figure out (the anagrams) or let Fordy answer your questions. I hope you all had as much fun working on the puzzle as I did. I can’t wait for another to give our brains and research skills a good workout. Kelly
