The obvious implication of what you said, and the conclusion that you draw
readers toward, is that he overruled the book.

Didn't Fritz do badly in Paris because it played bad book moves?

"This" post means this post, the post I posted, my post.  I figure people will
complain about what I said, and rather than emailing to just me, I was
requesting that they email all of the moderators, since I didn't want to have to
forward a lot of stuff, or have the other moderators have to forward a lot of
stuff to me.
