The above is false.

Louis Blair
I disagree. For example, I wrote that Susan Polgar has only won the
Woman's World Championship one time. She did not win it four times.

That posting was pulled by tanstaafl, Moderator6, because, he said,
that I had failed to "prove" this statement.

When I wrote that "everybody knows" that Susan Polgar won the Woman's
World Championship one time and this is common knowledge that all
chess players have, he wrote back that statements like "everybody
knows" are not acceptable and I must provide "substantial proof".

I note that my statement that Susan Polgar won the Woman's World
Championship one time has not been restored by the FOC of which you
are a member. Kindly explain why you have not restored this statement.
