WASHINGTON POST-CODE WORDS 2/13/2022
A extremely fun and clever puzzle by Evan. I think solvers will find it different and very enjoyable.

Oh that was cute. And even after solving the mechanism the answer was funny!
So I just plain couldn't get my meta based on "Up the Down Staircase" to work.
My challenge it to constructors is to make a meta where the meta, theme or metanism is "Up the Down Staircase".

Superb clueing, awesome construction, interesting mechanism and fun answer when the AHA hits. In other words a usual Birnholz puzzle. Liked it a bunch!
NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!
