Subject: Re: juangrande's mate :-)

I would like to play this out, but I don't have a gothic set. It would be nice if we could play it out on the computer, though. If that is what was being said earlier, I'm sorry for the repetition.

Also, did you get my question about Professor McFarland at the Univ. of Wisconsin/Whitewater? I have a neighbor who teaches math at UCLA, and he says that a colleague of his is a graduate of UW, and that they are world-renowned for their excellent math teacher training program. I told him about McFarland's use of chess in his Finite Mathematics course, and he was impressed.

The professor may be interested in the math on this discussion board.
