I have analyzed every move of every game. They are full of brilliant moves.
Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.

Oops, that one was a stinker. I played it through in my mind and had the position wrong.
