Abstract: Abstract According to an (if not true, then well found) anecdote the world’s champion in heavy weight boxing walking along a nice sunny beach wants to take a swim. Taking off his clothes he thinks to protect them from getting stolen by putting a note on them: “These clothes belong to the world’s heavy weight champion in boxing.” Returning after a nice swim he finds his clothes gone, the note still there with the words written on the other side: “Thank you. Sincerely yours, world champion in long distance running.”
