Boring, buddy, but thanks.

2 votes to come so still up in the air.

Mprs, my other possibility for this week was "dihydroxybenzene", which in retrospect might have been the better choice.

Ah, fair enough. I thought about going with modified Stableford scoring on this one, but couldn't come up with a reasonable way to define "par" for a clue.

Congrats paulH and thanks buddy. The first two prizes were fascinating, but the third wouldn't play for me.
