Game Of The Week
I was playing in the Pikes Peak Open most of the weekend, so you get a quick game and a quick newsletter.
Interestingly, when you search the Fritz 8 database for games that end in mate under a certain number of moves, it will count resignations (if your opponent was going to be mated) even when the mating line exceeds that number.

I'm an old college friend of Bill Whinemiller IIIs and was hoping he could contact me. Could you please pass on my contact information (sevarino@hotmail.com)? Thanks.
