The most specific clues are that "He beat Viktor Korchnoi in 1976, Tigran Petrosian in 1978 and drew Sammy Reshevsky in 1986." I've checked my database for every player that did any...

Legalization of Prostitution Kristin Davis, who calls herself the “Manhattan Madam” and who is a convicted prostitute who served four months in prison allegedly for supplying call girls to New York Governor Elliott Spitzer, is running for Governor of New York State. Her campaign has generated more publicity thus far than any other candidate and thus she must be taken seriously.
