Just ask this question to anyone in sci.math and they all tune out and can't answer! >> Given a set of labeled boxes containing numbers inside them, >> can you possibly find a box containing all the label numbers of boxes >> that don't contain their own label number? BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH What a mob of great mathematicians. They're all geniuses just ask them, but they had to sacrifice any reasoning about blocks with numbers on them to make room for all the supermaths. Mabye this will help? ____ | 7 | ____ OK herzbert, can you answer what number is inside the box? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA he can't do it! Herc

Forte Agent has expired and google doesn't recognize that as a message id, what questions? The only questions I've been asked are copouts to avoid answering if there's a box with numbers in it. Herc

At the bottom there is a field for searching by message ID. Remove the 'news:' prefix in the link. Remove the whitespace at the end of the link. -- hz
