I've been absent for many months now .. I posted my Tetris puzzle and 
had to go away for a while (family dramas -- not jail!) so sorry for not 
writing it up .. hopefully I get around to it sometime soon.

My thoughts on the 'easy' vs 'hard' puzzles is that they're more about 
mathematics than about perl. I imagine that we should think more about 
difficult and easy perl tasks than math tasks.

An perl task would be more like: Sort a list of names in the same way 
the phonebook does. Rather than: Implement Eulers second theory of 
circle geometry in perl.

Cheers!
