Thanks, Paul! But say me, for the sake of precaution, in how many moves it is
expected mate in your position? Mine, for now, can't see more that 13 moves
ahead.

Votre Francais est tres clair! Mais comment vous etes reussie d'apprendre cette
langue? Aujourdi'hui c'est l'Anglais qui predomine partout.

Salut!
Leonid.
