To my surprise I found cubes in the biggest Toronto newspaper today (Metro), on page #2. Millions of people here read it. Thats the exposure that we need! :D

It got me wondering about exactly how much exposure it is getting elsewhere. Did anyone see it in the media recently? I wish we had a thread dedicated just for this. It is exciting and interesting to see whats written about us, the "speed cubers".

pretty sure it also means you might be drunk if you can say the alphabet backwards....

edit :
After a google,

Its a non-standard way to assess someones sobriety, but there is no evidence it links to being drunk. It is more commonly used to observe cognitive function, attention, and the ability to follow multi-step instructions. There are also many factors that can affect how you perform in this test, such as if you have Inattentive ADHD (can get distracted more easily) or are nervous around cops.
