Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by dbouldin.

Wish I had tracked my solve because I didn't do anything I felt was close to deep lookahead. I'll resolve later. I like your acronym guess Valerie!

What I find most interesting is that my ex-husband went to school with a boy named Enoch Huang. (In Baton Rouge in the early 80s) I wonder how common that combination is.

Once I saw E I T, I did shallow look ahead to finish S O U. Nothing deep required. LOL

Chatgpt estimates about 7-10 Enoch Huangs in the US :)
#13: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Jun 20, 2025
okay, but there's also Enoch Kwong, Kwang, Wong, Wang, and any of a number of homophones :)
#14: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Jun 24, 2025
Well, ignoring the last name entirely, based on the population of Baton Rouge in the early 80's and an estimated percentage that were school-age at the time and the popularity of the name, it's only 92% chance that the kid in his memory even existed! :)

He most certainly existed. He's in this article, though I didn't get to his name before I hit the paywall. They went to school with a certain Piyush "Bobby" Jindal, former governor of Louisiana. (That's Enoch Huang, not Enoch Kwong) :)

Ddn't pay for the Advocate when I lived there and probably won't start now. Besides, statistically, this article may have been written by a delusional, obscure-name-loving drunkard! ...statistically.
