Playing Fischer Random Chess while wearing 3D glasses? Were I to be foolish
enough to buy a copy I would also have to invest in a sprinkler to spray my head
while using it, after lining the room with tinfoil to prevent my enemies taking
compromising photographs ;)

I would be curious to know who "us" and "our" are supposed to be but, for me,
1.b4 and similar insert a pleasingly non-bookish element without having to
muddle the pieces around :)
