please keep this cryptic crossword out of the reach of impressionable
children -- the psychological effects of prolonged profuse sweating,
gutteral subvocalizations, and massive defoliation of the scalp have
yet to be reliably determined by the analyst general.
OTOH, you, dear mature reader, should have no difficulty solving it.
if you do, you are welcome send in your solution and brag a bit.
otherwise you'll just have to wait two weeks when i'll post the cc
source and a reasonable answer set.
enjoy.
