 Do the Glasses contain beer or something stronger?

 That would be eyeglasses :-) (Don't need to beat up on the English

 of the foreigner ;-)  *sniff*

BIG INFORATIVE SNIP

Wikis, like history, are written by the winners :o). No, seriously, thanks for 
that. The judge's name was Gould - as pointed out by you. At least I was right 
about the Times :o)

Cheers,
Norman.

 In 1997, retired Hong Kong judge Wayne Gould, 59, a New Zealander, saw a  
 partly completed puzzle in a Japanese bookshop. Over 6 years he developed  
 a computer program to produce puzzles quickly. Knowing that British  
 newspapers have a long history of publishing crosswords and other puzzles,  
 he promoted Sudoku to The Times in Britain, which launched it on 12  
 November 2004 (calling it Su Doku). The puzzles by Pappocom, Gould's  
 software house, have been printed daily in the Times ever since.

 One thing that has always fascinated me is Tony's mails. Sometimes at the
 end of a paragraph I get I get (8-)#. I am not sure what it means.
