Date: 31 JUL 1980 1006-EDT From: RP at MIT-MC (Richard Pavelle) To: CUBE-LOVERS at MIT-MC IS IT POSSIBLE? I just got a note from Martin Gardner who plans an article about the cube in Sci.Am. sometime. But he claims that a person names THISTLETHWAITE has proved a restoration procedure of 50 moves and believes he can reduce it to 41. Gardner also says that a 2x3x3 solid is selling in Hungary, also by Rubic.
