I didn't know the history, I had no idea it was an open question for 12 years!

As I said, it was a very long time ago when I heard of the problem. I don't think it was in an interview, but I honestly don't remember the circumstances. I do remember being quite proud of myself, so I guess there's truly an element of bragging in my statement. Doesn't mean I lied though.
