I'm still of the oppinion that you can get from any one position to any other so long as you have 5 caps (and the last eruption was legal). But all my pieces are packed right now :(

And I'm wrong! happy days! (just got out some thumbtacks and graph paper... so I'm an addict). But just because I can't right now see any way to do it, doesn't mean it's disproven... I'll stare at it later.

So you shuffle the caps so that they're all on one color?  Hmm...  I shuffle
my caps to one of the two adjacent corners so that there's a cap on each
color.

Now we have to figure if one is better than the other.
