I think Fernando spent time on this and was willing to spend money, too.  People
with time and money are too rare to be hassled when things fall through.

I think that Morovic isn't as serious about this as Fernando thought he was
going to be, and eventually things reached a point where he wasn't as serious as
I needed him to be.

In case there is an IM or GM out there readin this, I'm happy to play anyone of
even remotely similar qualifications who wants to do a match, and I'm willing to
make it a shorter match if they'll consent to be slaughtered in some blitz games
before or after the main match, so I can retain some sense of pride.
