hi Donald

Welcome to the forum!

though I'm too much old to join here

??  If there was an age limit, some of us would have had to resign about 50 years ago! 

There is a theory that mathematicians do their best work when they are young and then it's all downhill from there.

I don't subscribe to this theory.

Thinking keeps you young!

Looking forward to your posts,

Bob

ps.  I see you've introduced yourself twice.  OK there no limit on that either!

Which do you prefer, Reese or Donald ?

Hi anonimnystefy,

I think the forum is a subset of the site! Isn't it?

Hi ganesh

Yes,but I wanted to make everyone have a heart attack.

Everyone would certainly have one if they see that I said there is a better place to learn than this forum.

He has a point. The forum is a subset of the site.

Hi anonimnystefy,

Is your introduction thread closed? I didn't know that. How did it happened? I am not aware of this.
