Not a comment on the solution techniques.  A comment on Lord Stanley's Cup.

It depends on your point of view.  Detroit actually stacks up pretty well, with the Red Wings (hockey), Pistons (basketball) and Tigers (baseball).  They also have the Shock (women's basketball).
 
 
The problem with the Lions is Bill Ford, (edit:  the elder) who was given the team since he was incompetent to manage an auto company.  As if anyone else in this town has proved competent to run an auto company.

				if the 4 in r7c2 is false, then the naked triple {2,5,7} is true...

nt = naked triple
 
(5=4)r9c1 - (4)r7c2 = (nt257)r578c2 - (7)r2c2 = (7-2)r2c7 = (2)r2c5 - (2=8)r8c5 - (8)r8c3 = (8)r7c3; r7c3 <> 5

Are you talking about the younger Bill? I think the old man got rid of Millen because of Bill. That should've been a good start. |
