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

http://chessmind.powerblogs.com/posts/1173935666.shtml

It begins:

	Alexander Alekhine, the fourth world champion, was
	a player so blessed with creativity, so richly
	endowed with fantasy, that even games played in
	simultaneous exhibitions were sometimes tactically
	deep and rich. And so it was in the game
	Alekhine-Hulscher (N.B. in Alekhine's My Best Games
	of Chess, the opponent is called "Mindeno"), from a
	1933 simul in Holland. Though just 17 moves long
	(and the first nine moves are simple theory), the
	heart of the game displays tactical complications
	it took generations of commentators to finally get
	right!...
