			WordSmitten's mascot, Denouement Dylan in a quiet moment* with The New York Times Crossword Puzzle while listening to interviews with authors on "About the Books" *[French dénouement, from Old French desnouement, an untying, from desnouer, to undo : des-, de- + nouer, to tie (from Latin ndre, from ndus, knot; see ned- in Indo-European roots).] Our motto with Dylan is "Learn to Love Fringe" and his ability to untie and tie knots is uncanny.
