While replying in Susan Polgar's thread on Chess960 here, I found the Benko+Bisguier 4-game 'Pre-Chess' match in the Nov. 1978 Chess Life & Review. Black placed Bishops in corners 7 of 8 times, White 5 of 8 times, so I think my latest adjustment is well-motivated. (I play while walking the dog pictured in a photo here, and she is becoming fairly good at it.:-)
