				| I only used three steps, but lots of fun.......... 
 
  	  | Quote: |  	  | xy-wing 13-9 with vertex in r4c4, which opens up a 
 Type 6 UR17 in r78c39. To prevent the deadly pattern either r8c3=5 or r7c9=3
 (5)r8c3 - (5=1)r2c3 - (1=7)r7c3
 ||
 (3)r7c9 - (3=1)r7c4 - (1=7)r7c3
 thus r7c3=7 which opens up a
 
 a Type 1 six cell DP 15 in r2c23, r5c12, r8c13 that forces r8c1=2 to complete the puzzle.

				| I also used the 139 XY-Wing as my first move. Next was another XY-Wing, on 341. Either of two moves made the same eliminations and finished the puzzle: an M-Wing on 13 or coloring on 3. |  |
