It is very well known that "Edward Winter" is obsessed with Raymond
Keene and has been attacking him incessantly since the late 1970s.

In the last decade or so Winter has added other names to his list of
people he attacks all the time. These include especially Larry Evans,
Eric Schiller and most recently Sam Sloan.

(I am honored to have my name added to such a distinguished list.)

I have put quotation marks around the name "Edward Winter" because
nobody knows who he is. Nobody has ever seen him.

Unlike the others mentioned, you are a *special* case Sam!

You frequently doubt the very existance of people, even those you have met,
and are otherwise well-known.

I think Winter is not unknown, and one of the principals of Ray Keene's
publisher went to school with him - and regularly played chess with him.
Winter is not a strong chess player.

Detectives have even
staked out around the house in Switzerland where he supposedly
receives his mail and nobody has been able to find him there.

He is English not American, and some English people are not nearly so
forward as some Americans! I encountered him last making inquires of Adorjan
about another player not mentioned here. But that is private correspondence.

Taylor Kingston shares some remarkable similarities with Edward
Winter. Both are English. Both have the same enemies list. This has
led me to wonder that they might even be the same person.

laugh - let me assure you that this is not so - well, 'assure' is a
nonsensical term to use in writing to you, since you want to put your own
fingers in the wounds, no?

I think that's okay, it has a precedent. But it doesn't mean that everyone
else is so er, kinesthetic.
