Some from other cultures may not have sufficient understanding of our culture,
or command of the language, to realize that this is a volunteer project, or be

OP may not see your response, as they may not be subscribed, so I CCed them,

information, but will not do their assignment or job, or fix their project.

At this time of year, September 9582nd[1], various academic and professional
