Well, I guess by now, everyone figured out why I am using this on my
signature:

All of us are smarter than anyone of us.

I guess I must add: "All of us are stronger, better and smarter than anyone
of us" :D

I am because we are.

This will NEVER fail :D

Thank you so much for all the support you have showed. This has proved, yet
again, a lot that I don't really need to list here :D

We shall do our best to keep everyone updated until this issue is 100%
solved ;)
