  kevin86: I think white fumbled away this one. Is there a better move than 40 Nxe5? is there a worse one?!

  DevastatioN: Hey, this is early in the morning, so I didn't get to analyze it well, what about Re3 instead of Nxe5? Does this give a little bit more slack to white?

40.Rxe5! Rxf3 41.gxf3 Rxf3 42.Qh4 Rf1+ 43.Kh2 Qd2+ 44.Kg3

The caption is just a reference to a song. A pun? Maybe not, but it is Quinn-essential Beatles music. ;->
