 Ted,
 Danny's solver/generator comes up with a solution path to these puzzles.  he isn't posting that anywhere that I know of.  but I think its fun sometimes to try and pinpoint the path that was found when the puzzle was generated.

 Ted & Norm:
 
 My solver produces a solution path that I manually edit to see what can be trimmed/reordered. I also use HoDoKu to look for alternate endings for puzzles where my solver has chosen an XY-Chain.
 
 I've recently gone back and added my edited solution to the head post of puzzles a week or more old. This is a FYI for those who may be curious.
 
 Norm is in the ballpark! And Ted hit the home run!!!
 
 Regards, Danny
 
 BTW: I appreciate the positive feedback on my puzzles
