"Hex" in the Author column refers to the beloved constructors Emily Cox & Henry Rathvon who, among many other puzzle accomplishments, created the NYT Acrostic every second week for 25 years. Of the 657 Acrostics here, 616 are by them.
The Nov 11, 2001 Acrostic was never available on nytimes.com, but we have it here. It's worth doing.
