No, that's an address that one of the students sent me (that wasn't easy
since apparently the students are afraid they might fail the course if
they tell anybody the teachers' addresses and I have promised not to say
who sent that one to me). "Kgros" is one of a group of teachers who all
send their students here...

I did mail this "Kgros" with a polite request that that person read a
couple of pages on the subject of "netiquette" (I suggested a couple of
URL's) but haven't received any reply... (I also made my own fake "cp2
post" here, hoping that at least one of the teachers would read it...)
