    FYI, I wasn't born in 0007 AD , nor 2007
    Ah, must be 1907. Happy to see that we have a centenarian among us

    With the stuffed animals for your avatar you could be 7 years old for all we know zack. What a child prodigy you are.

    You may teach a person from now until doom's day, but that person will only know what he learns himself.

    Now I know what doesn't work.

    A problem is understood by solving it, not by pondering it.
