Hi Arnoud!

Seems that your baby wants to be an Ester present, ... ;-)
Yesterday I analyzed the position of our game - the result is the
strange 19th move coming with this e-mail.
... you may wonder about it ...

The english literature is not available at all any more.
BUT I have the copies and I think their will be a possibility to
recopy them. Not in the next days though.

I will think about the handling of making abot 300 copies and sending
them to you.

On the other hand - it would be crazy sending them to you during our
match. Boris said their is a real increase of strenghth out of that
stuff, ... ;-)

best wishes,

Jens
