  1. Here is Dennis M's real-time commentary---neither he nor anyone else (Illescas at official site, Chessbase...) I can find has a full analysis up already. I contributed some comments on the endgame after coming back from a 9:30--11am class.

    Also in this item asking for a plausible McCain-Obama game, I posted a local-color note and then my idea for a Sarah Palin skit.
