You misunderstand me I think. I don't think it's easy, based on all the discussion I've seen over the years, and the various attempts that have been made, I think it's a Hard problem. I was just mentioning that if someone wanted a serious carrot, that would probably be it. I'll be quiet about it now though, since I *do* understand how contentious an issue it is.
