And once again, our gallant warriors from Washington have spoken.  In response to Astronaut Greg Chamitoff's forcing move 20. b3, the Bellevue, Washington, students chose only 20 ... Ba6 in response.  "Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera!"
  
Greg is currently touring the country making appearances on behalf of NASA, but is in contact with Match Director Hal Bogner.  Greg will be at the Supernationals in Tennessee, which will be held April 4-6 at the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center in Nashville, and will visit the Stevenson Elementary School Chess Club in May.
