Nice work... good theorizing.....Excellent use of paper. Even though I don't beleive this is the appropriate forum I'll throw in a little twist.... most people believe that working form the FINISH to the START is easier mostly because they start at the start and give up and work from the finish..... Ie. They in truth work from both ends... This is a very common mathmetical process. Given condition X prove Y... Normally Math Jocks will work in both directions and meet in the middle. You also get to see this Phenom. in that little word game, the one where you must change one word into another changing only one letter at a time, I think you'll discover most people work both ways in this game also. But only in mazes do people generally seem to forget that they have worked through the forward half of the maze before they start the back half.
