Nightwalk: Thanks for the links Lyliana, those are some pretty attractive women there. I could imagine playing a simul against all of them. It must be double the effort.

Nightwalk: Thanks Sarah. The images are wonderful, particularly the ones on Capablanca. Do you have an image of Alexander MacDonnell? I've tried searching for one in books and the 'net but without success.
