Oct-28-06		plang: Interesting complications starting with 20 b4. Skembris gave 24 Nh5 as leading to an almost winning advantage for white. Ending after 43..Bc2 looks like it should be winning for black. Skembris gives 47..a5 as winning for black. 59..Bf8 would have avoided whites counterplay with rook and g pawn which allows draw.
