Take into mind also i get a lot of crap in my mailbox: "can you solve
this", and majority of it is crap.

Some posters like Uri Blass you learn that their analysis are very
carefully checked, so any post from Uri mentionning: "tough problem"
i'll take dead serious, but completely unknown persons i tend to skip
posts completely from if they ask it in a mystery.
