The somewhat paradpxical theme (both White and Black have to give a move away, so it "should" be soluble as a H#4...) is shown clearly and economically.

Thanks for pointing out the paradox -- Why it does not work as a H#4 since both black and white want to lose a move anyway? :-) Trouble is they want to lose their move at different times!
