This reminds me of something I was going to say.

I wonder if the judges next month would consider starting the tournament at
a different time of day. I don't think it makes any difference to the
fairness of the play, but it does make a difference to the fairness of the
post-mortem! At the moment, all the Americans (and Canadians, and Mexicans, 
and even Argentinians ONE-NIL! ONE-NIL! ONE-NIL! ONE-NIL! sorry, got a bit
carried away there) get to discuss the solutions 'overnight' and us poor
Europeans wake up in the morning with a great pile of email to plough
through already.
