I thought I made some comments about this a while ago, but with all the hubbub around arriving home tonight I probably didn't get it posted properly. . . .

I've seen this coming for some time, and have thought it through. It does look like I just have to accept this pawn loss. . . .

I've looked at downstream aspects of accepting a loss of my rook instead, and taking the bishop and a couple of pawns in trade. . . .

I'm going to look at it all again for a while before making my choice. . . .

I'm not familiar with the book, but I do like the opening.

It's typical French opening, though I can't figure out which variation it is, most probably it is called advance since in the most openings with a pushed pawn in a variation, it is called that way. I usually used to play exchange variations in French and the similar openings including cross pawns. But I though it might be somewhat disturbing for the black King's Knight to push my e pawn so I decided to went with it for a change this time. Anyaw, there is nothing not to like other than that from the black's perspective(and except maybe the early Queen advance) so I think it's natural that you like it .

I love the fact that you give us your daily normal life schedule as well most of the time. You are certainly a very unique poster because of this and many other quirks like this. You are still one of my favorites on the forum.

Part of it is to apologize for myself for getting distracted by people who think they count more than JazzFanz, a popular delusion held by a lot of folks who are in the families of JazzFanz members.

Chess devotees generally have a similarly fantastic set of VIPs.

I wasn't aware that my daily life schedule could be called "normal". . . . . . .

Yeah, who do they think they are!

Seriously speaking, I think you have the closest daily life to be called normal around here, considering the average Jazzfanz member lives in the basement of his mom.

The Advance variation is a fairly solid position for Black, if you don't mind being cramped for a while.

One more thing I want to look at right now. . . .

Okay so instead of doing the Kd3 which worries me a lot on general principles, my move is f5
