Except for r5c5, a loss of rotational and anti-diagonal symmetry.

Hi Pat,

It's not that I am too busy, but I locked all my available power on the scan of the 27 + 6 + 3 patterns and without fresh interest for the game, this seems a better choice.

And if my current thinking on another 17 topic works, another job will come on the top of the file.
