POLITICAL ANALYSIS

Give peace a chance. Let it be. Obla dee, obla dah, life goes on,
bra.

Oh, and one other thing: I don't have the slightest, even the most
minute interest in the current FIDE cast of characters. If you can
find even ONE post of mine on the newsgroups that suggests otherwise,
I will eat my hat.

Ah, there you are! I seem to have interviewed most all the winners in the
past 24 hours, but I can't loose the goose. Which is better than the rumor
mill and something I thought of myself! "I'll just ask 'em!" I thought.
Brilliant, no?

It was good of you to already inform me of your new title, Sir, by private
e-mail, and in fact, good to have an evil-politician among us again.
Welcome!

Sam has been here a lot, but, he never talked with the likes of us, he jus'
talked at us. But enough pleasantries! Here are some questions already, Sir:

(1) As the most famous hide-away censorious and brutal politician,
government trained and certified, in the entire hystery of American chess
[see my new book], how will you prove anything to such as Larry Parr by
making arcane references to pop groups he has likely never heard of?

(2) And as for the rest of us, how do we know you are going to actually do
what you say, and I quote:

"Obla dee, obla dah",

which I take to be a reference to the title of a painting by Cranach the
Elder, and allegory of the broken-mirror of Hysphoraldnees [book iv];

so that on the left of the picture is the real 'dee' but reflected in the
broken mirror there is no 'dah'?

(3) A poster here, who I shall call The Man in White, who is rumoured to be
one of the Rob Mitchells [don't ask why I say this], has said that you
actually play chess. And we have a team you know, except our team-captain
ran away.

Are you in fact intending to play chess, and will you play with the likes of
us, Sir?
