Dear Lousy@Chess
It won’t let me post comments on your blog anymore. This makes me sad. I did want to respond to your correspondence chess post:
As far as I know, in the pre-computer days, researching books as an opening aid was completely legal. One could argue that computer-aided openings are merely an extension.
On the other hand, the difference between book aid and computer aid is something like a runner using nutrition and fitness to run faster versus strapping on a rocket pack. At some point, it’s not about the guy who runs the fastest, it’s how advanced the rocket pack is.
I’m guessing Donnie is the Rocker Pack guy?
Reply to QI mean Rocket Pack. You can have a Rocker Pack too
