Snowy Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 By 'eck lass, that really was cryptic! For anyone wondering: "Galena, a naturally occurring lead sulfide, was the first semiconductor discovered and found a use as a signal rectifier in the cat's whiskers of early crystal radios." I just hope it's right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Yay! Well done Snowy. I can't do cryptic clues in crosswords at all, but it didn't sound cryptic to me. I like geology and minerals. Sorry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 It was a good one don't apologise - just needed a few clues and a bit of lateral thinking (and a big helping of wikipedia ) OK, next one, and probably not very cryptic at all produce of two trees combined to make a festive essential.
