Hi AVRR,

A big vote of thanks for posting that sensational tribute to our powerful and beautiful game, both you and I love.

The statistics showed (and what wannabe good bridge player doesn’t believe in percentages), that bridge itself is the major reason for both suggesting and then working toward getting the youth of today (not so much the average age of the tournament goer) into first being tempted into and then succumbing to take up the challenge in what we shall designate no trump (the highest valued category) into doing it.

While I cannot prove everything that is written concerning value, I can testify to the improvement of simple arithmetic (mathematics)
which can and will happen to everyone who accepts that challenge.

Why? Simply because to not do it, will prevent the person from reaching his goal of winning, a good reason to do most anything!

Thanks again for being a pace setter in getting across necessary truths with the glory of competing with first learning, then playing, with the idea of certain love to come, every time one sits down to play, our glorious game.
