  Shams: 16...h6? is feeble-- but it leads to a simple, lovely, and very instructive finish, one for the ages-- white's knight attacks the light squares mercilessly, f5, g6, then f7 twice. A knockout combo to be studied. And a most appealing final position. Lista, you are thanked for your cooperation.
