5/5 difficulty and both blue and purple are ridiculous.

Agreed! I resorted to going to a hint site (in this case, on Forbes) for the first time. I don't like doing that, but I'm sick of striking out.

The 100th anniversary issue arrived today! This is a real keeper. Unfortunately, I don't have time to read it right away but I leafed through it and there are quite a few articles I look forward to reading. Congratulations, The New Yorker!

I've complained often enough about TNY's odd and inconsistent practice of capitalization in the case of direct quotations that are complete sentences.

Here's a sentence from another source:

Quote
Seitz said "as shepherds, we cannot abide injustice, and we stress that national self-interest does not justify policies with consequences that are contrary to the moral law."

The quotation is from the Roman Catholic bishop who chairs the Committee on Migration of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, but it's included in a Perspective article in the Sunday edition of the hometown newspaper--an article written by a retired university professor.

(In addition to the lack of capitalization of the "A," note the lack of a comma after the word "said.")

There is no hope.  :(
