Hello Leland and the CCC, I just wanted to let everyone know that I played in the Amateur Open this past weekend here in California and scored 3.5/4. My new unofficial rating is now 1903!!!!!! I finally cracked the 1900 mark!!! My goal is to get to 2000 by the end of this year! My chess club and I are going to the World Open this year, so I hope to see a lot of you guys there!! Take care and God Bless. Warm Regards, Josh "Lawman" Lawson  -  jlawson1185@yahoo.com Lawman: Like I said, "an 1800 player in North Carolina is a 2000 player in California!? Keep up the great play. Regards, Leland
