No, I didn't make an effort at all -- only about 60-90 minutes of my own
(supposedly free) time over several days (as opposed to company time), starting
the other computer, starting the program, inserting the disk, trying to follow
the moves, finding out that there was an illegal move in the variation, getting
the information from another poster the following day, restarting the computer,
restarting the program, inserting the disk, etc. I'll not make that effort over
one of your posts again, I assure you. I also apologized in another post for my
error and explained it -- and I was gratified to see that I was evidently not
alone in missing the transposition. Frankly, given the problems in determining
the actual move order, I surprised we made it as far as we did in discovering
what was going on.

But please don't let me stop you from your enjoyment of flogging that particular
horse, deceased or otherwise. Have fun!
