Lionel is sending this to TheChessDrum, while I will note it here or in Douglas' blog once I get time and the game-posting applets sorted out.KWReganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792573098380066005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7360019092704946757.post-26163295457500057922009-01-19T18:36:00.000-05:002009-01-19T18:36:00.000-05:00I finally reached Lionel by phone.

Please shoot me an e-mail (regan AT cse DOT [shaggy beast] DOT edu, or just Google my full name to find my contact info), or just write back here. I'm free tomorrow (Monday) evening from 6:30 onward, say until 9, that way we can play two G/30s. Also please confirm that by "Langston Hughes Center" you mean <A HREF="http://buffalo.citysearch.com/profile/map/7737101/buffalo_ny/langston_hughes_institute.html" REL="nofollow">this place</A> at 25 High Street.<BR/><BR/>I would have liked to publicize this Inaugural-connected mini-match, but actually I was in doubt about coming back from Montreal until midday Friday.KWReganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792573098380066005noreply@blogger.com
