- Thanks to all of you who responded to my query about multiples of 9!!
- I started to thank people individually, but in the end it became a toss up
- between thanking everyone, and writing my christmas cards...!
-
- I've now got more proofs than I expected, many different, but all on the same
- basic approach.
- The solution was along the lines that I'd gone, and ended up as easier to
- prove than I expected. However, I didn't manage to get a proof myself, which
- is why I'm a chemist, and you guys are mathematicians.
-
- Thanks to everyone who responded, I really appreciate your time and effort
-
- Cheers,
-
- Gavin
