Jul-14-04		BlazingArrow56: Very cool endgame where Black has a solid center and White has passed pawns on opposite sides of the board.

Jul-18-05		aw1988: Why the bloody hell do you insist on doing this? If it's such a good book, just recommend it. Posting what page it's on does nothing and irritates other members such as myself.

Jul-18-05		Sneaky: Well, suppose you have that book on the shelf, you might come across this page and now you can get your book and follow along with Geller. You on the other hand whine and complain, and have the gall to call davewv irritating?

Jul-18-05		aw1988: Have you seen his kibitzing? It's on EVERY SINGLE PAGE.

Jul-18-05		Sneaky: OK, I'm sorry for snapping at you, after seeing davewy's proliferous work, I see your point.

Jul-19-05		ughaibu: Davewv is making a collection of games in the book, I suggested to him when he did the same thing for his dragon book collection that he just link to the completed collection, I guess he either didn't read or didn't like my suggestion.

Jul-19-05		OhioChessFan: <Ughaibu>, your suggestion is in Common Sense in Chess Kibitzing, page 117.

Jun-25-07		whatthefat: <OhioChessFan> LOL!
