'MHowe, who cares who invented a certain piece, that's a trivial
thing.'

This is an odd thing to read from one who carefully claimed to be the
inventor of the Brigadier, as well as many other pieces.  But as I said
before, which you apparently did not understand, I feel no sense of
ownership.  As far as my lack of judgement in throwing the piece out, you
yourself failed to understand my context, to which you attach such
importance.  I decided that, in the context of Nova Chess, the Lioness
did
not work as well as various other pieces.  I have no idea whether or not
you have found an appropriate context for it, having neither played nor
analyzed your variant.  

Now I remember why I cancelled my membership to this site.  And now I
really should learn to stay away.
