This last paragraph below is total baloney because NONE of Goichberg's tourney will be used for qualification spots for the two 2008 FKB US Championships.....
As usual Sam is wrong in his criticisms, postings and conclusions.? Very Wrong. Also GM Gulko?told me yesterday he VERY MUCH wanted to qualify to play in the FKB US Championship.? VERY MUCH.? Sam is wrong to say nobody wants to play in the event anymore.? Very Wrong again.... as usual.

Dear Frank,

Thank you for your comments and your update.

Of course, I was referring to the 2007 US Championship, not the 2008
US Championship which has not even been announced yet.

I am sure that you will do a better job and I hope you will be
successful in keeping Bill Goichberg's intrusive fingers out of the
event. Tell him to get a board resolution for any changes he tries to
insist upon.

Please try to invite Ben Finegold, who was unfairly excluded from the
2007 US Championship.
