I correctly pointed out an error, and you called that a smear.  You
repeated the mistake, claiming again that the problem you linked to was
not an open problem any more.  I think it is safer for both of us if I
don't point out any further mistakes I see.

I don't have a PhD.  I said so when you (very politely) called me Dr
Bacarisse.  While I have examined and supervised several PhDs over the
years, but I don't have one myself.

You were wrong about having resolved the open problem you posted about.
It's still open.  You don't appear to have changed you mind about that.
