Version 2.0 of Cryptic Acrossword.  Updates include:
1) Updated clues.
a) Removed some extraneous words, especially articles and prepositions.  Also removed "Boolawnee pastries from."

b) Removed some red herring words that inadvertently cued wordplay.
c) Changed some words (including some capitalizations) to reduce obfuscation of answer.
2) Updated graphics (slightly).
3) Rewrote flavor text under title.
