    Please excuse me for breaking into the flow of runts, but I have a puzzlement, and since this is the smartest group of people I know, I was hoping you might help me.
    I do a lot of old crosswords. Last night I did the Newsday Crossword for Friday, November 24, 2017. It does not seem to be a contest puzzle with a meta solution, just an ordinary Friday, despite being the day after Thanksgiving.

    The title on the puzzle is KNO. Just KNO, no quotation marks, periods, slashes, anything. My question is, what does KNO mean?

    The puzzle has four evident theme answers,
    CAPANDTRADE
    CARRYINGATUNE
    DROPONESGUARD
    DELAYOFGAME
    all three word phrases with first letters
    CAT
    CAT
    DOG
    DOG

    Nothing else in the grid seems thematic.

    Can anyone tell me what KNO means? (Yes, I Googled every way I could think of, and The Crossword Fiend did not have a write-up.)

      Hey @BobK.... My flippant answer is KNO means KNO! (is the K silent?) I can't see a connection or meaning for KNO from your hints. If you have a PUZ file of the crossword on your computer, click the publish runt (http://puzzlecrowd.com:8080/UploadRunt) link on this blog post and copy the gruntz link into a blog comment, then we can solve it and guess for ourselves.

      The clues for the four themers were:

      17. Pollution control system

      28. Singing acceptably

      48. Stop being careful

      62. NFL infraction

      Only two other across entries were longer than five letters: 26. MARIMBA and 51. UNAIRED.



      Longest Down entries were ZIPPERED, DANCED, SENTRY, SPORADIC, ODDLOT, PLASMA, AREARUGS, GUFFAW, LINOLEUM, SALOME, and ALASKANS.

      Thanks for looking at the problem!

    @Bob, that upload runt needs a .PUZ file to work, a PDF does not cut it as you found out. You need to subscribe to Newsday to see their puzzles, I tried that link with no luck. Oh well, we tried.

    PPS I am tempted to see if I can solve the KNO puzzle like a diagram less puzzle, using the fractured clue list from your post. Not something I would normally do, though.
