Game Notes:

Map below. Thanks to Bart Denny for taking on the Russian and ... that other position. Wow! Bart, I didn't know I was giving you such an overwhelming position, ... oh, and that other one. Make up for all those others over the years? Please remember to submit conditional summer retreats with your Spring 1902 orders.

News from the Board

Balkans-Turkey:	Just hold right there while I adjust my aim....
England-France:	Since you appear to have your hands full to your south can I count on your being a good neighbor?
England-Russia:	Shall we dance?
England-Scandinavia:	Nothing personal, but you must go. That way I can turn my attention where it really needs to be.
Germany-Russia:	Can I be of assistance?
Germany-Scandinavia:	Your spring moves made me nervous.
Ita-All:	Kent is France or Spain.
Ita-Aus:	Oops! Those retreats are so important.
Russia-All:	No takers? Ok, I'll start. I'm with Austria. Wasn't it clever how I bounced with myself?
Denny-Humptulips:	If there was some way to give the Russian position a psychological advantage by playing up Phil's passing I know he'd have approved. Unfortunately, that might be too tacky even for me. I like to think Phil's somewhere smiling at the idea, though. We'll miss ya, Phil.
Russia-Humptulips:	Probably we ought to negotiate. Here's my e-mail address: adnyp@wizwire.com
Denny to Mr. Howell:	For this game I name thee...... Hef. With such a pornographic title for this game I think it appropriate.
Mr. Howell to Mr. Denny:	"Pornographic"? Even Mr. Williams kept his comments on this game's name on the clean side...
Denny-Hef:	Gee, this might be my best name for you ever. The mental imagine actually causes pain!
Denny-Barb:	Fetch Hef his slippers and silk jammies, 'kay? Another martini perhaps?
Russia-Italy:	I accept your proposal.
Spain-France:	Please step aside. My forces have prepaid reservations in the south of Italy and only wish to use your fine system of roads to speed our travel there.
