Thank you, Djordje.

But if you look at -
http://www.talkchess.com/forums/1/message.html?464212

you will find I already recommended 5. N-f3.  While I do not give it any
exclamation marks, my suggested response for black was (quoting exactly):

  " 5. .. Black Resigns. :) "

So, sorry, I got there 3 hours 15 minutes before you. :)

I only mention this because of the extraordinary claim made there about 4 .. g5,
which I cannot condemn enough.

I was settled down from my first post.

It is some others who seem a little unsettled. :)

I have this strange effect, and do not know why.

I supply a sort of Dedekind Cut (Google it if necessary).

LOL!

What could give you the idea that a "patzer" like me, as called by the top
players of CCC, could possibly be so eminent?  Please, be reasonable.

Further to the enormous chessic differences, Dr Nunn is very polite and
restrained, and writes English very well.  Mine is more like that Russian
chap's, the guy who shuffles into the bookshops.  People tell me he is not that
polished.

Why would any strong player waste his time being insulted here??

Condemnation, then, at your folly!

Best,
