Thanks for the "free"lessons, Marc. I still await your publications on the
theory of the opening and middle game in Chess. There is an IM from Texas whose
name escapes me at this time who wrote about a "reverse strategy" which is
really a form of retreat of his piece(s) so as either to draw the opponent into
untenable territory or allow a stronger piece a pathway to attack. Or in your
own words win some kind of tempo. It is a neat book because the conventional
wisdom is to marshall ones forces forward into the fray or storm the barricades
as GM Christiansen would have it in his book as fast as one could mobilize them
of course putting them in strategical or tactical positions.
