From: teruko PO2 NSKNET OR JP> Date: 16 aug 1999 Subject: Re: This and that. The FM Soft kyoto shogi freeware is at: http://www.vector.co.jp/soft/win95/game/se105554.html unfortunately those who I know who have tried to run it have been unable to do so. I have written to FM asking for advice on how to run it but have as yet received no answer. If anyone can figure it out I would be happy to hear the explanation. Something else that I have been thinking about is the larger ratio of women to men in the field of tsumeshogi compared with that in over the board shogi. Is there also a larger proportion of women involved in mail shogi? In short are women intimidated by the confrontation with assumed men at shogi clubs/tournaments and if so how can the rectifying of this situation best be addressed? Regards, Michael S.
