A friend told me today's word was a tough one but only thing he said. Not an easy Sunday word. 3 vowels and a seldom used consonant was able to snag a3 though and used my normal starting word Dec 11.

I was in the same situation. The solutions have been easier since the new editor came along. I thought amply was too obscure of a word for him/her. Under the previous regime, I would have gone with amply easily.
