signed by the respondent or his attorney or other agent or 
representative.
    (b) The answer (1) shall contain a statement of the facts which 
constitute the grounds of defense, and shall specifically admit, 
explain, or deny each of the allegations of the complaint unless the 
respondent is without knowledge, in which case the answer shall so
