WOW, that was great. Marvelous puzzle, just curious how you come up with the idea. That is brilliant!
REPLY: Very kind of you! I liked the idea of making thermos actually look like a temperature graph so experimented with their heights and placement in the grid along with the 'month' labels before adding the final elements to disambiguate (arrows and 8MA at the top)
