In hopes of injecting some life into this newsgroup: I've heard (by the rumour mill) of a LIFE program that will do 1103 generations of the r pentomino in *1.5 seconds* on a Sun 1. I can get to 2.5 seconds on a 2630 Amiga---but that's about ten times as long (the machine is six times as fast, times 2.5/1.5). Anyone got a clue if this really exists, or how it might have been done? -tom
