Yikes! Solved it, but I'm blind now!
Cool puzzle.
#2: Kai-Uwe Zickerick (conzick) on Dec 23, 2009
thx! think it's solvable with smile logic at the edges.
Help, Gator!
#3: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Dec 24, 2009
Found to be logically solvable by jan.
#4: Sallie Wilbur (sarriemom) on Dec 24, 2009
LOL, love it! Very clever.

Is the black in C10R37 supposed to be part of a comma, or was it accidentally placed?
#6: Kai-Uwe Zickerick (conzick) on Dec 25, 2009 [HINT] [SPOILER]
Yes, Adam, it's really part of the comma.
Merry Christmas!

Thanks. You too.

Very nice. To clarify, it is the alternating smile logic. When looking at columns 1 and 3 (since 2 is already filled), you have to fill in a cell on either side of column 2 the whole way down (40 cells plus 2 more for rows 2 and 39). The 2 clues in columns 1 and 3 add up to 42.
