Someone posted this position, as I challenge, I believe, to Diep. I don't think
anyone responded to it.
I started my program thinking about this, figuring I'd let it go a day or two,
but with the (US) holiday weekend, plus the technical difficulties that we had
here, I let it go for a while longer than I expected.
Does anyone know what the real point is of 1. ... d6 ?
