The posting above points out a problem many have noticed. While
running for election, Susan Polgar stated 72 times on her blog that if
elected she would bring in one million dollars in sponsorship money
from Dr. Eric Moskow FOR THE USCF. Here is an example of her making
this claim:http://susanpolgar.blogspot.com/2007...with-uscf.html
As far as I can tell, the grave difficulties many of these writers
have with English (or perhaps, just carelessness in conjunction
with laziness) makes it very difficult to determine /precisely/ the
meaning intended, in order to verify the above claim from that
example.
Now, it turns out that Susan Polgar planned to get the one million
dollars FOR HERSELF. Upon learning this, Dr. Moskow has canceled all
sponsorship of her programs.
I believe Dr. Moskow.
If Susan Polgar is an employee of Texas Tech, and has turned down 1
million dollars for the University, then she should be FIRED.
Yup.
When I read the example provided by Mr. Sloan at the top
of this post, my first reaction was: why does she want the
USCF to "send" her or PT to Florida? And the natural answer
was "because that way, the USCF foots the bill for the trip".

Susan, regarding the million-dollar donor, which is obviously
Eric Moskow, I don't get your complaint.
If he doesn't want to have anything to do with the USCF, or
anybody on the Executive Board of the USCF, and he only
wants to talk to Paul and/or you, why does the USCF have
to "send" Paul to go to talk to him.
Why don't you just go and talk to him.

I stopped reading right there. I think this speaks for
itself.
