Or, since you always talk about how much better your program is than mine, why
dont you just show up in Birmingham for a two-week match?

Too expensive?

Or you could show up along with Hiarcs, Junior and others at the next CCT.  Hard

the "bitboarders" are...  Of course talk is much cheaper and easier...
