Since orkut.com is shutting down from September 1st, I intend to entice the orkutians participating in the crossword community there this thread by extending the time limit to 4 pm IST instead of 10 am IST. And in anticipation of more participants let us have 4 answer quota per person. I heartily thank the Colonel for spreading wide the news of the existence of our thread started by very brilliant stalwarts! Welcome, friends! The more the merrier.
