Do you think you could have done better at the board? Or are you implying that Capa would have given it up as a draw? I'm sure that with silicon assistance, there are ways to improve upon Alekhine's play, but the remark above is gratuitous, to put it mildly. |

 | | perfidious: Exceprted from the page of Benjamin Lau, last seen in 2004: <....I've decided to leave chessgames.com and not come back. It's simply too exhausting to defend myself against AJ's crazy fabrications about me.... ....AJ: If you really think I sent you a virus, e-mail me a description of the virus and I will investigate my computer thoroughly. Any further whining from you online is simply for ignominious display and libel, and shows you were lying all along and you have no virus....> And it's the poor <Life Twit> who's put upon at every turn, or so one might think. |

Notice how it mimics Benjamin Lau's original post? Apparently it was lost on you. I just found it amusing that you were asking questions and getting your knickers in a knot over a post from 8 years ago, from a user who most of us know hasn't been around in forever. (which you are now aware of as you appear to have researched it.) I was amused by your efforts to squeeze blood from a stone. I was not attacking you, though I was making a joke at your expense. My condolences if you totally set yourself up for that. Benjamin Lau was an active contributor when he was here, and one of the better ones to have around. |

Perhaps Ben/Bobby was afraid <sleepkid> would punch him in the nose when he found out ... <Benjamin Lau>'s legacy = Game Collection: Picturesque Positions Along with what <square dance> said to <actual> about Angelina Jolie. =) |
