I am find a significant percentage of the 'easy' puzzles tedious to solve...whereas some of the 'hard' / expert versions are very smooth flowing...those are rare tho

so as an experiment one could 'reorient any puzzle to the other iterations and may find it easier to resolve...which may be going on brain-wise aanyway...brain juggles the image...orientaion is both l/r and u/d

The problem is that experts announce themselves--they always start with a clickathon which suddenly grinds to a halt. So when I'm merrily clicking away, it has to be either a very easy-easy or an expert.

I wonder if there is something intrinsic in the expert metric that requires them to have a significant number of spaces filled by cross-hatching.

I believe this is the first expert I've ever done w/o greens. Seemed very easy to me.
