How in the world did you ever conclude this? Is this how you
interpreted your election? Aside from whatever shenanigans in New
Jersey, isn't it interesting that you could win that region so handily
but fail to get elected as a delegate in your own state where they
know you so well?

I would have thought you were elected to be on the board of the USCF
to best serve the interests of the USCF. People aren't elected to
boards just to their dirty little secrets? They are elected to serve.
If you are saying that your intent was dishonest, that it was only to
reveal little secrets, why don't you reveal a few of your little
secrets and resign from your once and only time on the board???

Instead of trying to be a gadfly, why don't you try to work with
people and stay off R.C.G.P for a couple months. Work with them and do
something productive. You can work with people, right? You might
actually be able to do something if you worked with them rather than
attack them in the net and then complain you get muzzled.

I want to expose to the world that Polgar can't play chess that well.
She can only win weak tournaments like the world cup and Olympiad. When
she played in a strong one like the mayor's cup, she only finished 2nd.
Gata is stronger.

I also want to expose Channing and his secret plan to move the USCF HQ
to Crossville. People elected me to expose these dirty chess secrets.
