      @Jon that had a high pucker factor.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                            Probably. There are mathematical solutions that apparently use Group Theory.

                            As an engineering manager, I've determined that the best method to solve it involves taking it to pieces and putting it back together in the correct order.

                                Because it was there.

                                    There was a tornado about 3 miles from here yesterday.

                                    We had big black clouds, heavy rain and hail and big wind.

                                    No big damage here so it was just fun to watch. I spent the day picking up leaves and branches.

                                      Yes. It’s all algorithms. They even published some back in the 80s when it first came out.

                                        Yea I was able to do the cube quite easily years ago. I’ve since forgotten all the moves.

                                          I could reliably beat two minutes at age 12-13.

                                          At the Rubik’s cube, that is.
