Mephisto 3000 Tomorrow...

looks like we are in for a treat ..........from the Times :

..........."It has been a while since our last significant Puzzles milestone, but we're making up for lost time with a double celebration. Firstly, this Sunday's Mephisto crossword is the 3,000th in the series. Those unacquainted with Mephisto should take heed of its title, a shortening of Mephistopheles. The puzzle is suitably fiendish and, like Faust, once you yield to the diabolical mind of the setter, there is little hope of escape. For No 3,000, the three regular setters have come up with something of a tour de force — so arm yourself with a stout dictionary and prepare to do battle."
