Game of Life

Recently I was challenged to a game-of-life-off competition. The result was http://jacekk.co.uk/scripts/life.html

The code for this can be seen in the page source since its all in JavaScript. The challenge was to get a working version as fast as possible so there are no fancy optimisations.

It's a nice challenge and worth trying if you have a spare hour :)

Could you explain a bit more?
I'm not too sure what I'm looking at when I click "randomize" then "start" (or maybe it's just my ignorance).
