Hi - I'm super busy right now with various chess work. I appreciate all helpful sugestions and ideas for this computer versus human match that I want to set up (not sure when). Of course I have to discuss all with the President of the club, and likely get over-all approval from the board. I'm optimistic, and I'll certainly be resuing this event in the coming months, just don't pin me down to exactly when it all comes to fruition...
