Thanks for writing that tutorial, I've referred to it a few times over the years and as far as I'm concerned it's the definitive Lagrange multiplier tutorial. I was able to accurately picture it in my mind's eye before clicking the link to confirm. You've helped a lot of people!

It's genuinely good to hear that it's been appreciated (let alone so much). I owe the milkmaid example to my Calc 3 professor, many years ago, though I later realized that I'd probably altered it a little from his version.
