Mar-23-09    rangek: First?? Mar-24-09    brucejavier: 2ndddddd Mar-24-09    Kopenhagener: You are both right - the angel from Archangelsk was first in the European Championship for the second time ! Mar-24-09    percyblakeney: <first in the European Championship for the second time !> And the first time was impressive enough with nine wins, the standard draw against her sister, and one 126-move draw: European Individual Championships (Women) (2007)/Tatiana Kosintseva Mar-24-09    DCP23: <the angel from Archangelsk> Haven't heard that epithet before. Nice. Mar-24-09    WhiteRook48: Sixth! Mar-24-09    Jim Bartle: "Haven't heard that epithet before. Nice." I recoiled a bit to see the word "epithet" applied, thinking it meant a negative description of something, or a swear word or phrase. But then I looked it up, and DCP used the word correctly, that it's meaning can be neutral. Funny how the use of words drifts away from the proper definition.

I dunno, seems to lack a certain something.
