Knobular thrills is likely Lithium...I remember watching countless souls trying to get to the 1st bolt. All would exclaim....wtf, this is stupidman?? And how do you pull that 1st move?

That was back in '94, before the purple book came out.

Knobular Thrills became Lithium.  Possible because of my schizophrenia.

Volcanic Panic become Yo Mama.  It then reappeared on the Frog.  I think that was a good move since I not sure I will ever be able to do all of Yo Mama.  The current version of Volcanic Panic is within my capabilities.

I think I might be enjoying retirement.  Just might be permanent.
