Actually, being forced to read the games in algebraic would probably be the best way to learn. Since the U.S. is really the only hold-out in the "official" conversion to algebraic (the USCF has postponed the date a couple of times, I believe), we all really ought to make the effort to learn. I'm told that chess book are considerable inflated in price because two versions have to be made, one algebraic for most of the world, one english descriptive for the U.S. And hey, I'm as cheap as the next guy.... -- Roy J.
