Line and color logic gets everything but the red. (There is one sticky point, but it can be done.)

Then edge logic on the 3 in c35 makes r14-16 white.
Line logic.

Look at the 3s in r14 & r15. They cannot both be in c31 because of the 1. Therefore one has to be in c28-30. Since there is a 1 in c28, that makes the rest of c28 white (i.e. c28r16 & r20 are white).

Likewise, those two 3s cannot both be in c28, so one must be in c31-33 and so the rest of c31 must be white (i.e. c31r13, r16, & r20 are white).

Then LL to finish.

That was the first Maury I thought of, as well. I suppose he's the most famous Maury. :)
