Right, and I forgot to say thanks for the games, was still sleepy.
Now that you're giving them to us at a slower pace I'm actually playing
them over. I don't even try that when somebody posts a batch of 10 or more

How on earth did you survive those blitz games ?
I guess it's different when you're seeing them when they're being played.
