Equally respectfully, I wonder that I do not remember now  :-)

I do not post here or in *that place* under any different name (which makes all
the speculation pointless), and I am of course not RL (or dark side thereof!) as
perhaps one might wrongly speculate that you had at one point been speculating.
Just a computer chess fan, not wholly a newbie maybe. ;-)

The anonymity is never abused by me. Of course you are correctly focussed on
what-wrote (= post-content) rather than on red fish like who-wrote or why-wrote.
