Play this puzzle online at the Daily Sudoku site
 
 
UR (12)r79c48. Killers yield common outcome
 
 
Pseudo cell 47 inr79c8-(4=8)r2c8
 
4r7c4-r8c4=r8c8-(4=8)r2c8=> 8r2c8 |

				I finally found a chain that begins and ends with pincers - just like I recently learned from Marty and Bat.  And after reading the following link again, I finally realized that a bivalue cell can be either a strong link or a weak link!  I didn't know that!  No wonder I couldn't express chains like the following before.  I thought it always had to be a strong link!  What a great read this is!  (Who was the guy named daj...?  Is he still around?)

(I think the following Eureka notation's right?  Let me know if it's not.)
 
(1-7)r6c6=(7-8)r6c7=8r6c8-(8=4)r2c8-(4=7)r8c8=>r8c6<>7. |

Danny A. Jones. He's still around but doesn't post here anymore. He used to generate puzzles and post them, but he quit when everyone but me stopped posting solutions.

Don, yeah, that works. I think most would notate it with a change in the first term: 7r6c6=(7-8)r6c7 |
