I find that I am still in the dark as to the exact "implications"
of a quote posted here by Mr. Parr, perhaps a thousand times
or more.

It had to do with Mr. Campomanes and a press conference in
which Larry Parr's watch held that his favorite show, TASS News
Today, was /already in progress/ and annoucing that the FIDE
honcho was going to stop the match, annul GM Karpov's lead,
and declare the result a tie.

Since that time, not one person other than Larry Evans-Parr
has held that, by their watch, the TASS report preceded the
actual speech *AND* contained the details such as the FIDE
honcho's "undecided" solution of nixing GM Karpov's edge
and declaring the match drawn.

Now, as I understand it, if, for example, the evil President of
FIDE were undecided as to /any/ of the details, his comment
would be truthful in that he would not have "known" exactly
what he was going to "do" next. But in the strange world of
Larry Evans-Parr, it is "proof" of a lie. In this bizarre realm,
the (unsupported as far as I have seen) idea of TASS going on
the air to announce the match being stopped, automatically
provides verification of a Campomanes' "lie", on account of
that being the /desired and hoped-for/ result.

It makes no difference if GM Karpov was upset; it makes no
difference if Mr. Campomanes felt obliged to explain himself
to GM Karpov for having vaporized his hard-earned lead; those
are merely annoying facts, and as such can be dismissed as
irrelevancies since they do not support to preconceived
conclusion. Only those "facts" which do support the desired
result are to be considered or addressed, and any fact which
for whatever reason contradicts the "good story" must be
thrown out. This is the credo of Larry Evans and his ratpack:
never let the facts stand in the way of a good story.

And we have to admit, it does make for a good story.
