Pythagoras said everything was number and so the AI brigade made the haystack bigger, harder to find the needle. Maki Kaji invoked the human algorithm to find the outstanding 55 or so numbers, and in the process exercised our cognition. If Einstein is right in that if there is a 4th world war, it will be fought with sticks and stones, then maybe Kaji played a big role in averting it, well hopefully anyway.

And a pleasant gentlemen he apparently was.

Sudoku was very apt for us creative Irish, getting us to work both sides of the brain, one stimulating the other. Freud said we defied all matter of psychoanalysis but it looks like Mr Sudoku didn't bother trying to figure us out, he empowered us to do it ourselves.

Thanks from the Emerald Isle of Ireland and sympathy to your family and those around you.

P.S. Friend was the least incorrect option below, ironic in the context of precision - he is missed already!
