But I cannot continue. I had received advice, although unsolicited, about a game in progress, and although I may have figured this out on my own, I may not have. The beautiful game had become tainted, so I decided to resign and tell my opponent why. He suggested that I annotate the game, and I have done so. The lesson to be learned of course is never discuss an active game... wait until it's finished.
