“If you’re someone people count on, particularly in difficult moments, that’s a sign of a life lived honorably.”   —   Rachel Maddow

(I’d go along with that!  Unless I just failed to set her up as a Tag before, this appears to be the first Rachel Maddow quote since I’ve been posting the spoilers to the Cryptoquote.  I’m a big fan of her’s!  Today’s solve went MUCH faster than yesterday’s, for me!  Gotta love those apostrophes!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
