I decided to play the Bird opening for one year as a sort of homage to Charlie "Yardbird" Parker. About six month in to my little 'experiment' I realized that the two completely separate entities shared more than a name... Both were and remain under appreciated, marginalized, and most importantly misunderstood! I am a perpetual novice; would never claim otherwise, but I have managed some impressive wins due to my opponent's lack of familiarity with dancing in Birdland :-)
