No Puzzle Has More Sex With ... LOGIC

________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
 

No
puzzle
has 
greater intimacy
with numbers 
1 thru 9 
 the concept of 
LOGIC 
than
... 
the puzzle 
known as 
 
 
It 
 is the puzzle
in which
____________________ 
 where numbers 
are
is 
as important as
where numbers 
   aren't   
____________________ 
But
we cannot teach 
logic 
to students
because 
it 
would
make them
smarter than 
their teachers
AND 
That would be 
suicide
for
Artificial Intelligence
which must 
never, ever
communicate
genuine
intelligence
to anyone
unassociated
with
Big Pharma
or
other 
mega-powers
in
USA
❗❗❗
 
Of course,
that includes
the 
*** Military-Industrial Complex *** 

"Sudoku"
is an Asian word
translating into
American children
sure can be stupid

  1. In the course of a "normal day," how many SUDOKU puzzles do you do?

    1. A minimum of six and a maximum of ten.
      Talking to myself while doing the puzzles
      is a given but never aloud.
      I've been doing the puzzles for ≈forty years
      and have taught it to people
      ranging in age from 9 to 90
      with sometimes remarkable results.

      Unfortunately, the "teaching" ended
      more than 10 years ago

      But thank you for using the phrase "normal day"

  2. Two-part question:

    1) What level puzzles do you do?

    2) Do you ever "cheat"?

    1. Oliverio responds with one short + one long answer:

      1) I do every level but "Easy"

      2) "Cheating" at Sudoku was something I never did
      until a 5-star dentist Rezkalla extracted
      all my teeth before fitting me with
      an excellent pair of dentures
