If I had to say everything that everyone else wants me to say, they'd be a bit
long. My wording may not have been sufficiently precise, but think a bit before
crying "lies, lies!" like a chess-deranged Emile Zola. If the Bahrain version is
the strongest, and I suppose it is, they would not/could not have used it in
Maastricht. Whether or not the Maastricht Quest is stronger than the Bahrain
program is known only to Frans Morsch, and maybe not even to him!
