Scientists have now issued a warning that in a couple of decades, some parts of our planet may become uninhabitable. I beg to differ, some parts of our world are already uninhabitable. Our patched, long-suffering planet has endured human’s degradations for millennia; we don’t care about our world; we hate each other and are so quick to point out our differences, perhaps I am doing the same thing, but this article is meant to be constructive.

I don’t mean for this article to pander to any group of people but everyone. Recently, I watched a film titled, ‘Knowing’ and it’s about our world being destroyed by a massive solar flare which inevitably made the earth uninhabitable and in a creepy twist of fate, scientists are echoing the same thoughts. They are not predicting a solar flare will obliterate our world as we know it, they are warning us about climate change, but…

Visual Description:  A great tourist state.

NADKR  =  DRANK,  PILEM  =  IMPEL,  UNYIMT  =  MUTINY,  YGLEAL  =  GALLEY   —   Giving us:  DANILMNAE

Clue/Question:  The largest New England state has 3,478 miles of coastline bordering the – – –

Answer:  “MAINE–LAND“

(A completely acceptable stinky pun.  And, educational to boot!  I’ve only been as far as Kennebunk and Kennebunkport, but I have been to Maine, once.  I probably took I-95 pretty much all the way.  Very picturesque state, and lots to do there.

All of today’s clue words are familiar old favorites, but all of their jumbles appear to be new.  For some reason, I wrote down “legaly” for “galley”, and only realized my mistake when I tried to look up “legaly” in the ralis95 clue word database.  Of course, it wasn’t there, so I thought I might have had a new clue word, but it didn’t look quite right to me.  So, I Googled it, realized my error, then noticed my answer letter layout was off by a letter.  I played around, and finally came up with “galley”.  Good answer letter layout, but I guess the combination of the cartoon, its dialog, the clue/question, and the quotation marks and hyphen, were more than enough for me to see the answer.

Nice coastal scene cartoon.  I’ve never seen Maine from a boat.  It looks like it would be fun.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
