ok got tired

read positions 6-10 did two trainingbot exercises. Must take nap.

Will read Fine tonight

I have 3.5 hours until the u1500 tourney. My conference is over and I don't fly home until tomorrow. I will use this time to read in Fine on King and Pawn endings, playing out the positions on ICC. When my concentration runs out intermittently,I will play trainingbot.

Let's see how far I get.
