Hello!

Since my computer had no Web connection for more that one week, I accumulated
many new positions. Will place here, at least, one of them.

[D]qbbqnqqq/3Pq3/3Pq3/3Qq3/2PQBn2/1K1NB1k1/Q2NR2q/3QR3 w - -

It could be that somebody will recognize this position as Chinese character
"NO". Its origin is curious. Invented, as many other characters, to contain some
visual or logical connotation, it contain one. Picture, or logic, help in
remebering each character. In this, horizontal line stays for higher limit of
the sky, while below it is a bird that try to reach it. Since bird can never fly
up to upper line on the sky this character indicate negation, "NO".

Please indicate your result.

Leonid.
