Wendy, according to the archives, the last Very Hard was 12-29; 12-31 is listed as Hard. |

(Another unfixed site bug that has persisted for years)
 
 
If you print the puzzle, the rating may not show.  Maybe Wendy solved a "Hard" with a "Very Hard" technique?
 
 
And, I might point out, the puzzle of 12-29-2009 was not a "Very Hard" either.

Yep, you guys are right. When I clicked on the Archive it went to Jan 2009, not Dec 2009, and without looking closely I thought, YAY! Sam gave us a VH for New Year's Eve. I am just grateful I didn't comment, "Wow, tough puzzle!." |
