PS. We should set a rule as to which colour goes first.  Since it's
traditionally white in chess I say red goes first because it's not black.

Huh.  I was always taught in a red vs black game, that "Smoke goes before fire".
But you're the 2nd person to say that red goes first, maybe Mom was wrong?!
Man, she's not gonna like that.


Well I have no knowledge of what the tradition for red vs. black is, so
my suggestion is just arbitrary.

Now that I think about it, maybe the Connect 4 rules say which colour
goes first.  If they do, that's the colour we should go by.
