but your consideration is nonsense.
I did not "replay" it because rebel lost, i replayed it because ed complained at
me that not the right book was used.

If any other participant would have complained for whatever reason, and it would
have been reasonable, i would have done the same for any other program too.
But the complain by ed is the only complain so far...
