Sam,

If that is really you you can call me (google me for my website) to arrange
the match. I would prefer G/90 but we could never finish in one day. G/60 is
disastrous for me usually, but since we'll be playing the first 10 moves in
less than a minute it might work. Would you agree to an increment? Say, G/60
+ 20 seconds? That's about 11 hours of play. Or we can play it over a couple
of days, or several evenings.

Unfortunately the Hoboken club has folded so we can't play there. I'm sure
Ken Thomas would be happy to host, but that's a schlepp for you. He's some
sort of arbiter, I think. He or his son can transmit the games to ICC.

I had originally said you would not win 2 games out of 5, but I accept your
draw odds offer.

How about $150?

Angelo
