Aug-05-12  DanielBryant: Is White already winning by move 12?

I accidentally saw the final position before playing through the game and had to wonder how Black's queenside could be shredded in so few moves. While Black is pretty clearly busted by that point, one can't help but wonder why he didn't try Rd8 in place of castling.
