Monty, hi.

Mr. Stikker is quite redundant, no doubt about that. I may only guess that his intention was to preempt a possible question, "And what if you choose the middle door? Or even the right one?"

There is no difference of course which door you start with. This may be obvious to you, me and to many others. Some may even insist that those who do not see this simple truth have no business solving puzzles.

I reserve a judgement. Would you like me to add your comment to the letter of Mr. Stikker?

Thank you,
Alex
