(Julius Caesar would have probably preferred "three" to "six", but "mxolxv" is more like a Superman villain than a word)

I am still in the dark I am afraid: there was an old schoolboy rhyme about Julius Caesar and a lemon squeezer, and I am wondering if that might have any relevance...

U=A
I=O

... but in which word(s) and why/how? Still no pennies dropping...

L=R
S=Y

Okay, so it's the letters of Julius shifted 6 places along in the (alphabet) a (areas) to d (Democrats), Caesar presumably signifying Roman alphabet - or does it have other import here?

That looks like a very well-deserved win! ===[**CDM**]===

Caesar shifts six is a very specific indicator, but only if you know what you're looking for: a Caesar cipher with a shift of six.

Thank you for an interesting clue and that link: I did not know the history of this type of cipher, and I note in particular that JC went for the shift of 3, hence a - d.

Direct on the left and watch out for a slightly sneaky indicator, not to mention an answer word which was new to me...!

Also new to me, Kevin.

It cropped up in a Dean Koontz short story I was reading, and of course Kindle makes it easy to look words up, although finding a good synonym for the clue was less straightforward...

Thank you, Kevin!

Hmmm, I can see where you're going with that, but it's not my answer, Sue.
