00:06find something. And that's why there's a danger just to look straight forward to the final
00:12position. Now this is all 10, 15, 20 moves that have been made already. We don't want

01:48Fisher's 960, just reshuffling the pieces. But even with our classical, old-fashioned
01:54position, there's too plenty of room. But it will be your choice. I believe that now
