Larry Parr's continued public silence effectively forces me to reveal
my relationship with Salma Hayek. This will do no good either to me,
Ms. Hayek, or the Ventarosa production company, but it appears that now
I will have no real choice but to tell the whole story.

Parr probably did not even know that I had ever had a relationship with
Ms. Hayek. That is why I said that Parr was acting like a bull in a
China Shop. All these past twenty-one years (do the math: I'm cool), I
have avoided publicly revealing the facts that I have just set forth
above.

I am deeply discouraged and disappointed that Bill [Goichberg], acting
like a bull in a china shop, has brought this into the public forum by
making a public motion and posting it to USCF BINFO System, as a result
of which this matter will disseminated and the entire world will know
about it in due
course.The fact is that my relationship with Zsuzsa Polgar (who now
calls herself Susan) was not entirely Platonic. I have been discrete
and have not revealed to anyone other than a few close friends the true
nature of our prior relationship, until now. Now, Bill's public motion
effectively forces me to reveal what really happened those many years
ago. This will do no good either to me, Zsuzsa,
Bill or the USCF, but it appears that now I will have no real choice
but to tell the whole story.

In "Response to Ethics Complaint by Herbert Rodney Vaughn," Sam Sloan
wrote:

" [....] I then accompanied Susan [Polgar] and her family over the next
several months to chess tournaments in Copenhagen, Denmark, San Juan,
Puerto Rico and Rio Gallegos, Argentina. I personally arranged the
tickets for the five of them and me to fly to Argentina.

I will leave out the details, some of which are seamy, except that I
will say that my remark about which Herbert Rodney Vaughn now files his
ethics complaint is entirely accurate.

I must add, however, that my remark was in response to a motion to
censure me made by Bill Goichberg. That motion by Goichberg consisted
of five parts, all of which had to do with my relationship with Susan
Polgar. Bill probably did not even know that I had ever had a
relationship with Susan Polgar. That is why I said that, in making his
motion, Bill was acting like a bull in a China Shop. All these past
twenty-one years, I have avoided publicly revealing the facts that I
have just set forth above."
