Why was the blond fired from the M&M factory?
She was throwing out all the W's.
Thanks for the fun puzzle.

Is the end of the thermos in r5c5, or is it one of those ambiguous thermos where the end is just anywhere on the thermo between r9c1 and r9c9?

Reply: Yeah they both end at r5c5. Only one person did ask this question before. Other seems to understand that they both end there, maybe I should had clearified that but seems most understood that so I just did leave it like that.

Some sudoku-creation software lets you have lines that end a little before the centre, which makes it clear it's two different lines ending in the same cell. The way it looks here is that it's all one connected line (that even has a little curve connecting them), thus my confusion!

Thank you for this fun puzzle, Prof.Dori! The combination of thermos and whisper lines is very beautiful and gives the solve a nice flow.
