Several months ago there was a puzzle on the net concerning two very
intelligent mathematicians, one given the sum of two numbers between
three and 100, the other given the product. After an exchange that
went something like:
	Sally: "You can't figure out my sum"
	Paul:  "I have figured out your sum"
	Sally: "I have figured out your product"

You were asked to identify the numbers. Well, this generated
quite a bit of interest on the net and several solutions. I
gave the original problem to someone in the office, but let
the solutions slip by. Would someone please MAIL me a copy
of the solution? My officemate would be eternally grateful.
