The questions was not directed at you and I do not think you know the circumstance of the problem. I am not the only one who has had a problem with Hyatt censoring and noplaying their programs. Just ask Amir Ban of Junior and others. If you had to search thru 24 histories to see who was a Tiger program or not and then made one mistake and was the fifth one and got noplayed and then censored when you tried to explain then I think you would think differently. I do not need crafty"s rating points and it certainly is not penis envy which I think is a sad commentary. Bruce is right. This finger note problem is a nasty problem. LeTiger plays all humans and GM and IM's and computers and have no played or censored anybody. David Beauregard David Beauregard
