Some day I will have a real web page. ;-) I have one now: [ext] http://members.aol.com/billspight/

I learned go when I was living in Japan in the late '60s from a friend who was 5 kyu. My girlfriend's father was a 2 dan who gave me 7 stones. After several months I could beat him if I lost only 2 groups. ;-)

I have been 5 dan for 20 years. Because of rank inflation, that means that my play has deteriorated. These days I play a game or two a month for fun.

I do research about the endgame and kos, and have discovered a method for evaluating multiple kos. I am known, I suppose, for precise numerical calculation, but I play mostly by intuition and feel. :-)


Dear Bill,

I am going to write an article for our magazine in Belgium, based on the BasicInstinct page. I intend to cite you as co-author of the reference material. If you'd rather not have your name published, please drop me a note.

I sent the above message to your aol address, but it returned to sender.

Dieter


Dear Dieter,

It got returned, eh? I can't think why. The spam gets through just fine. ;-)

As for the Basic Instinct page, I remember making some comments about it a while back, but looking at it now, I don't recognize anything as mine. Anyway, do as you see fit. :-)

Thanks,

Bill
