I like the rules. But that's probably because I've already re-written
my code 3 times, and each time I hit spot on to Derek's results. 

I guess this contest is more of an exercise in logic than anything.
It's kinda like those assignments we got in elementary school that say
"Read all directions first before doing anything!" And I always found
kids asking me for a purple crayon because step number 7 says "draw a
circle on the back of this paper with purple crayon" when the last
step says "do nothing but write your name on the top and turn this in"
and I'm done in 2 minutes.

Read the directions first people! Don't question it, and apply the
logic in the order it is presented.
