			<description>&lt;p&gt;Perhaps P=NP&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;A polynomial algorithm implies that the problem is not NP-Complete only if you assume that P != NP for which see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_versus_NP_problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, the important point that a known polynomial algorithm is more clearly bounded that a NP-Complete algorithm is fair enough.&lt;/div&gt;</description>
