Hi Bill, thanks.

At first, I misread the cartoon as Super Kalamazoo Bros.,
and I had visited the Kalamazoo Go club in Michigan some years ago,
so I was totally confused. :)

Very small world: just found out I know one of the editors (not mentioned in the article) who signed off on his paper.

Just wondering why this was posted now (the article, not your link) because that is old news.
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).
