Jul-18-06    A.Alekhine: R.I.P Jul-24-06    hidude: <<<Nice Job>>> Jul-25-06    aguada: July 25, 2006 Sir, Maam : I often commit mistake in recording a game that reach move numbers 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, etc. all ending in the number 6. The number 6 looks like number 5. Can you improve the appearance of this topograhical error? All these numbers are found in the Opening Explorer games. Respectfully yours, aguada, Ozamiz City, Philippines
