Hello,
	There is a new post on The Chess Mind.  You can read it at:

It begins:

	A month and a half ago I noted the game
	Thesing-Marin, which repeated a line of the Open
	Ruy generally condemned on the basis of the 8th
	game of the 1978 world championship match between
	Anatoly Karpov and Viktor Korchnoi. Both games
	started 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5.O-O
	Nxe4 6.d4 b5 7.Bb3 d5 8.dxe5 Be6 9.Nbd2 Nc5 10.c3
	and now 10...g6. Korchnoi was crushed in 28 moves
	and his 10th move found few followers, but one of
	them was Korchnoi himself! Still later Marin used
	it against Thesing, though the large rating
	disparity should give us...
