Hmmm, I'm earlier than "Early Earl."

An xyz-wing (136) solves it in one step. Look out for the apparent UR (13) which is invalid. The UR (36) demands that R7C6 be <8>, which also solves the puzzle in one step. Coloring in <1> is also a single stepper.

Late, but not lost.

I had to have an xy wing of 1-3-9;
Then an x-wing of 3s in columns 3,6;
Then an xy wing of 1-3-6
I see the 1-3-6 xyz wing now, but did not see it when I worked the puzzle.

It's all about numero uno.
You can ER it using C2, Box2 to remove <1> in R7C6 or R1, Box8 to remove R9C3.
You can also Skyscraper it to remove <1> in R1C6 or R9C4. |

Simple coloring on <1> reduces it to singles all the way ......
