	I found it interesting that Khalifman proposes only systems with f4 and not with f3. I am curious of your comparison Milen, as I liked your contribution for members and you seem to play the classical very much

	Would be interested to hear your opinion about the book. I got my copy yesterday and will take a deeper look these days. At first sight a lot of interesting new ideas and analysis, but also some missing critical lines. I am quite curious why after 6...Qb6 Khalifman looks only on 7.Nb3... May be I have a hole in my analysis published a couple of months ago for members...

If we listen to Khalifmans own words...I can only say it sounds good. : "Presently, Black’s main lines are considered to be 8...Be7 and 8...Bd7, but his opponent is better in both cases. This would be particularly true if the White players have read this book..."

	Recently I and one of my frineds are working hard on the Classical Sicilian and especially Rauzer. Can't wait what he will propose against Kozul's suicide variation. Our analysis show that Kozul's line is still alive and playable. So let us see what Khalifman will propose... Also 6...Bd7 is good for Black. Galkin's assessment that the road to equality is very thin in NIC Yearbook is correct but for now i do not see how White can improve.

	I see that the Khalif has jumped on the 8 ... h6 9. Nxc6!? bandwagon as anyone else. For some obstinate reason I never trusted this strange line for White. It just seems wrong to take on c6 and strengthen Black's center like that. Instead I believe in the traditional retreat 9. Be3 with kinside play against the weakness h6 to follow.

	I also had a soft spot for that line. Good to see it's doing well lately.

	I will be very interested to see Khalifman's opinion of the fashionable 6...Bd7 7.Qd2 Rc8 variation. The last time I checked this line (a month ago), Black was close to achieving complete equality.

	All our dreams come true if we have the courage to pursue them.
