I found this pretty interesting. In a thread about Susan Polgar a week
ago or so, someone posted the link:
http://chesswhore.blogspot.com/
This was clearly a prank, and additionally, it looks as though whoever
conducted this prank, tried to make it look as though Sam Sloan was
responsible as you can see for yourself that Sam Sloan's chess page is
one of the links there. However, and this is the interesting part, if
you view the original html code, ie; "view", "source" (in internet
explorer), you will see who actually put this blog together. Near the
bottom of the source code page, you will come across this line of code:
"!-- emposted by Randy Bauer @ a
href="http://chesswhore.blogspot.com/2006/04/i-am-whore.html"
title="permanent link"4:40 PM/a/em   -- "


that has been commented out with the !-- &-- tags so that it
doesn't appear on the actual webpage. I guess he didn't know that it
would still appear in the html code.


I'm sure somebody can do some deeper research to find out who is
responsible. I've learned there are lots of people with knowlege of
computers and programming far deeper than mine.

Needless to say, I see no need to make up fake Sloan posts -- the real
ones are good enough for me. I did not post the material in question.
Gee, you think somebody could have conveniently put that information
there to take the heat off the FACTS about Sloan I have posted?

I genuinely like and respect Susan Polgar. I wouldn't post anything
negative about her, even if I was supposedly attributing it to others.
She is a class act and deserves better.

If I were a betting man, this sounds like the work of Jason Repa, who
has a history of similar types of forgeries.
