John Mayer walks from Excitement to Tedium in 4 hours. Later he walks halfway from Tedium to Excitement and back again in 3 hours and 55 minutes. Finally he walks all the way to Excitement from Tedium in 3 hours and 52 minutes. What are his rates going uphill, downhill, and on level ground assuming that these rates remain constant? </SPAN>\n" );
