(I think today the clue words were tougher than the answer!  I had a little trouble with both “origin” and “acidic”.  And, it looks like ralis95 is going to have to update his clue word database with “batten”.  The answer letter layout was actually very good, but the answer just seemed very obvious to me.  Great job with the cartoon though.  That’s probably what made the answer so obvious!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
