I can't imagine solving a half-decent Sudoku without scribbling my notes and repeatedly erasing and rewriting little numbers in the little boxes until each entry is narrowed down to a single digit.

I suppose I should feel inferior to those who can keep it all in their heads (actually, I do feel that way, but try not to dwell on it), but I enjoy using my current method, and I am able to solve 'em all in my fashion.

Incidentally, 22-year-old basketball superstar Chris Paul is reportedly a serious sudoko addict. Another indication that he's the smartest player in the NBA. Go Hornets!
