The Amazing Math Inside the Rubik’s Cube --

I bought one when it first came out and spent a lot of time, off and on, trying to solve it over subsequent years, and finally did solve it sometime in the late 80s; however, once I solved it, I realized I had no idea how I had done it. I put away the Cube , forgot where I put it and, in the mid 90s, when I thought I'd give it another go, I had to buy a new Cube; I still haven't recreated my original solution, but, then, I haven't given too much time to the effort...

Anyone else ever try to solve the Cube?...
