Taylor Kingston regurgitated a ChessCafe

No, Larry, I posted a link to it.
He accused Evans' of making numerous errors.
Several of those
mistakes already had been acknowledged and corrected
by GM Evans himself..
Ah, yes, like when he "corrected" the date of the Steinitz-Zukertort
WCh match, and still didn't even get the right decade. A marvelous
example of scholarship. But we must give Evans some credit for trying,
however ineptly.
So then, Larry, how about you emulate your idol and acknowledge,
correct, and apologize for the various errors, lies, distortions and
misrepresentations you've posted in this thread? I've pointed out
quite a few, and you haven't addressed a single one. Except I do
notice the list of errors/lies/sins/whatever you attribute to me has
been diminishing as each of your points has been refuted.
You know, this all really is so silly of you, Larry. GM Evans'
10/1996 article is a shoddy piece of work. Always has been, always
will be -- nothing you ever do can change that. A reasonable man would
simply accept the fact, but of course on the subject of Larry Evans
you are anything but reasonable. So all you can think of is to attack
me, or anyone else you find handy, by fair means or foul, almost
always the latter.
You imagine yourself to be defending Evans, but in fact you are a
serious embarassment to him. With friends like you, Evans hardly needs
enemies.
