mrknightly: Laissez les bons temps rouler!
 
   Jan-01-23 Bereziuk vs A Izhnin, 1976 (replies)
 
mrknightly: I guess I could agree with <perfidious> but then we'd both be wrong. There's already enough curmudgeonliness coming from that quarter, ganz gewiss.

mrknightly: <newzild> The KID reference is to the Kings Indian Defense and to Abraham's son, Isaac, the kid, whom God told Abrahm to sacrafice. See Genesis, chapter 22.
