Yeah, I think I guessed that last - also the last word on the list alphabetically, oddly enough.

Yeah - whenever there's an "E" and a "D" , or an "S", the words pile up.  Got to 30 today, though the last few words took a little longer

I was stuck on 45 words, then came back later and realized what the other two were pretty quickly.

Yesterday had too many words - I got burned out with about 5 words left.
Got there today though - the E word took a while...

You found everything! All 45 words worth 267 points.

Took a while - had to leave it for a while.  One randomly-selected collection of letters worked.

**Edit. QB today. not too bad, though once again, i question the validity of a couple of words...

Got to 48 - 2 pangrams.  The 2 remaining words are probably obscure scientific or foreign words.
