Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for cubers in the Philadelphia area, and especially cubers
at the University of Pennsylvania. My cousin goes to the University of
Pennsylvania and knows a bunch of people on the staff of the newspaper,
the Daily Pennsylvanian, who might be interested in writing an article
about blindfold cubers. They were interested in contacting me because
I did some blindfold cubing on Beauty and the Geek 2 and I was once the
world record holder, but it just wouldn't do justice when there's
someone at their own school who can solve it in 1 minute 17 seconds for
them not to include him in the article.
Anyway, so if you go to the University of Pennsylvania, and you can
cube, let me know. And they definitely want to interview Marcus and
see his skills into action. Actually, Marcus, if you're free, my
cousin is in the dorm across the street and she's interesting in
meeting you just to see you solve the cube. She's seen me blindfold
before, but I can't memorize the cube in 15 to 25 seconds, so that
would be very interesting to witness. She's also got a camera if
you're having trouble with your lithium battery.
It seems that it's possible to build a strong cubing community in
Pennsylvania like we have here in Southern California, and with experts
like Marcus in the area, it shouldn't be too difficult to attract media
attention. Actually, Marcus, if you're interested, I may be able to
get you a spot on one of the morning news shows. They would also be
interested in other Philadelphia cubers... so just let me know.
