Answer 29

I didn't see that, one, two, I didn't answer to your response as rudely as you did mine. I am already chilled, if you hadn't noticed I am not portraying any thing or any word play to express that I was mad. Thanks. I still don't like the math section, to many people just butting in one, then they do the answers FLAT OUT, not saying excuse me or anything, then expects a medal. Sorry if I insulted you in any way or compared, but I thought you were one of them.
