This is the same chart as before except that it is in terms of all
cube positions in <U,R> rather than in terms of W-conjugacy classes.
At the same time, I will take the opportunity to correct an error
in the previous posting. Permitting Q+H moves rather than just
Q moves can save up to 10 moves (e.g., 25 moves with Q and 15 moves
with Q+H, 24 moves with Q and 14 moves with Q+H, and 22 moves with
Q and 12 moves with Q+H). My thanks to Dan Hoey for spotting this error.

If you don't have time to do it right today, what makes you think you are
going to have time to do it over again tomorrow?
