Nov-11-17  ozmikey: <thegoodanarchist> <Sydney Cepacol? I thought Cepacol was cough medicine!>

Cepacol sponsored a lot of tournaments in Australia in the late eighties/early nineties, but I think the reference here is an anachronism (unless their record in supporting tournaments goes further back than I thought).

Nov-13-17  kevin86: White goes after his opponent with the heavy artillery.
