Raymond,

Perhaps I guessed wrong then because your signature in those other
emails is simply the universal product code for Rice Dream in the one
quart size. I don’t know how big a quart is either because Americans are
stupid.

Good luck solving the 4^4! I’m pretty sure that you are facing a parity
issue. I never tried to solve the 4^4 but I remember running into
similar issues with the 4^3. If nobody suggests solutions for you, you
might try searching the message archive
<http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/4D_Cubing/messages> for the term
"parity" though there are a lot of matches.
