Comments:
Tim Royappa, Emil Pai, and Frances Bernstein provided the solution to the “Micro ED” DISORDERED puzzle. There were no solutions submitted for the Crystoquote puzzle.
I have been the puzzle editor since the fall issue of 2011 and am planning to step down soon to allow someone with fresh ideas, perhaps a younger ACA member, to assume the position. It has been a lot of fun. If you are interested in being that person, please let me or Kristin at the ACA office know. I would be very happy to see the Puzzle Corner continue to be a feature in the new RefleXions format.
