Today's grid was unique - a giant IF in the center of it, and in between the I and F ran the amusing answer to, 19D, Exclamation upon seeing this puzzle, THATSABIGIF, which got (at least here at JAMDTNYTC HQ, a big laugh). Jean made short order of today's crossword, Mike had to struggle with his old nemesis, food -- in particular, the spelling of 20A, Carmichael who composed "Heart and Soul", HOAGY (not HOGIE, aka a tasty sandwich), and the answer to 3D, They can rate up to 350,000 on the Scoville scale, HABANEROPEPPERS (not JALAPENOPEPPERS, which are a mere 2,500-8,000).
