Hi Leonid,

since Pretz is in the garage at the moment for a revision of the engine, I
thought I'd go over and comfort her with your new position. But I think the
engineer broke something, because it doesn't find a mate (in 12) very quick:

07:57 WM12 12 Nxf8+ Qxf8 Qfxf5+ Qdxf5 Qxf5+ Q3xf5 Qxf5+ Nxf5 Qxh8+ Kxh8 Qe5+ Kh7
Qxf5+ Qfxf5 Qxg8+ Kh6 Nxf5+ Qxf5 Qg7+ Kxh5 Qxf5+ Kh4 Qh5#

But at least it did find something, so there's still hope! ;)

Dobriy vetcher,
Paul
