Three for each conservative that acts like a petulant child when we switch to energy efficient bulbs.

The answer matters not.

The government will tax the winnings at 99% to make it a 'fair' distribution of wealth. I mean, the Texas banker had to steal the money from someone. And the person who solves the problem did not do it on his own, somebody else did that. And the wealth must be spread around just to be fair.

That most certainly will be true. Mathematics is a field that builds on the prior work of others.
