Please do not post new problems to me personally this way.

This forum does not work this way.


Post new problems to the forum  ONLY  through the specially created web-page for these purposes.


The comment window  (so called  "Thank you form")  serves for totally different purposes.

When you post new problem to a tutor through this  "Thank you"  window,
it is the same as if you drive on a highway using the reverse transmission.


Have a nice day / night / morning / evening / afternoon and the tea time (!)
