(...) If you read exactly what was written, without superimposing any unstated ideas on top of it, you'll see that _NOTHING_ is moving.

(...) Correction, that was the internal code name! Here is more detail: As most of you know, BricksWest was held in mid February in both 2002 and 2003... unfortunately BricksWest will not be able to continue next year.
