David S. Day 2 vs. Steiny (LLL) Day 2

4/6.  Hopefully I earn a decent score here given that I missed the American history question but got the pop music.  Not sure that's ever happened to me before.  Overall, I thought today's questions were especially well-written.

1. Dancing :), D12.  I can name one ABBA song (Dancing Queen) and zero songs by any of the other groups.  So it was dancing or bust for me.

2. Robinson :), D01.  Great question.  It requires two steps, but I think both quite doable.

3. Gorgonzola :), D11.  A favorite of mine.  Only blue cheese I could think of that fit.

4. Poison Ivy :(, D22.  Ugh, so gettable.  I got the "three" aspect of the clue but didn't quite get there.

5. Atlas :), D20.  Didn't see what else this could be.  I had no idea about the history of this term.

6. Mather and Mather :(, D33.  I'm going to be frustrated about missing this for a while.  It was "Ottawa" that completely threw me, which I took as Ottawa, Canada without any other consideration.  I figured that if an 18k person crowd was really big, it had to be something in the more distant past.  Still, I think this is another great question.
