Enrique,

Would anyone mind if I sent encrypted messages to a friend using this
newsgroup?   I promise it will be computer chess related.  We feel more
comfortable with this language and a public forum where people get
together
to share ideas as a group seems like the perfect place for just the two
of us to have a private conversation.  When we want to be understood by
everybody then we'll use English.  There is no rule of any sort that
makes English mandatory over the net so I see nothing wrong with this.

- Don
