[Vision2020] Rubiks Cube Feat Likely Sets Record

[Paul Rumelhart]

That's an average of 56.25 seconds per cube. In high school, during the 
Rubik's cube craze, I managed a record of 44 seconds once. No way could 
I average under a minute, though. That's impressive, if you're into that 
kind of thing.

Paul

P.S. I should still be able to solve one in under two minutes if I 
practice a couple of times first. It's been a while since I've tried it, 
though...
