    Will Shortz is a scuba diver!

    He's the editor of the NY Times crossword puzzle. Last Sunday they were looking for a seven-letter word for "Scuba mouthpiece attachment."









    Today it's a seven-letter word for "Like scuba tanks, typically"









    I can't imagine another clue for that one. Well, none that would pass muster with the Times' editor.
