Both reading his posts here on Usenet, and having read his "Chinese
Chess for Beginners" book, I've got to say that when he stays on topic
and writes about what he knows, he's actually an entertaining author.

Sloan stays on topic? Where?

Most of his posts, actually. The key is figuring out what topic he's
talking about.

The problem is that the topic he's talking about is usually ``Sam Sloan''
or ``Women Sam Sloan has slept with'' neither of which is on-topic in
rec.games.chess.*.
