At this hour (10.50 ET) Eric Limeback continues to solve Rubiks’ Cubes after having broken the 24-hour record of 4786 as authenticated by Guinness Records for such feats. He is in the cafeteria of Laurier University with his Cube Club buddies having broken the record with  a startling 5040 solves in a 24-hour period. His dad, Leaside’s Rudy Limeback, says that Eric is tired but forging on, apparently determined to set a record that will be hard for anyone to beat. His father says Eric started out with a solve every 14 seconds but has slowed down a bit. His proud father says he is “well chuffed” by the accomplishments of his fourth child.
