I posted a short vid showing the Delian Solution, simple enough for a child, (they have not yet acquired neuronecrosis)even though some of them blow a fuse when looking at all the lines in a cross-word puzzle.

Seems that no one on the Archive has ever used that Title before.

It comes up fast on YouTube also.

Was there even a 'problem' there, which a 'solution' was needed?

If yes, then where and what is the, supposed, 'problem', exactly?

I posted The Delian Solution Part 2.
What I did, is I took the Laws of Exponents and demonstrated them in Geometry. A rather nice touch for those who claim, and have historically claimed, that it cannot be done, when in fact, as I show, it is easily done.

So, there is, and was, not even a 'problem' at all, here, after all.

Very good, Age. You figured out that once a problem is solved, there is no longer a problem.

However, i would suggest that prior to the solution, the problem did indeed exist. So, there was a problem, but there is no longer a problem now that there is a solution.

These truths I claim to be self-evident.

Are you some kind of actual idiot?

I asked you, very clearly, 'Was there even a 'problem' there, which a 'solution' was needed?

If the answer is yes, then just say and write, 'Yes'.

And, if you did, then 'I' would ask 'you', again very clearly, what was the 'actual problem', exactly?

Which 'you' then would, if 'you' were an open and honest individual, inform 'us' readers, here, what the 'actual problem' was, exactly, which you claim to have solved.

And, until 'you' provide 'this' for 'us', here, 'we' are none the wiser.
