i timed myself today on the acrostic for the first time: 4:23, which is awfully fast. maybe a personal record, although again, i usually don't time myself. it felt as easy as a WSJ acrostic.
and hey, i beat you on the puzzler by almost a minute. a non-gimmicky win! you crushed me on all the others, as usual.
Never done an acrostic that fast (even WSJ), though I don't race like in a crossword. Solved the WP weeks ago, not that that's any excuse. :) I bet you had heard of the central 15.
