To turn any part of USCF's business over to an anti-Goichberg camp
would be to repeat the same mistake. Over the years, we've had more
than a few board members who have "difficulty" "avoiding" self-
inurement in fact or in appearance. (I have tickets to prove that I
was on a commercial flight when I wrote the last sentence.)

Wonderful. This proves that Truong's defense of "I was on an airplane"
and therefore could not have posted as the Fake Sam Sloan or as the
"Voice of Reason" is invalid.

Was that what you had in mind when writing this?

I agree with your other points.

Goichberg is now pushing his idea of a "College Chess Tournament of
Champions". His idea is that since there are 42,000 USCF members aged
16 and under but only 200 USCF members aged 23, this tournament will
keep scholastic players in the USCF into adulthood so that they will
play in Goichberg adult tournaments.

Meanwhile, my plans to bring in one million scholastic members by year
2009 have been completely dropped since I lost the election. There has
been no discussion, none whatever, about doing things to promote
scholastic chess ever since I lost the election. All of my plans and
ideas (which Goichberg claimed were stolen from others, whereas I
freely admit that I did not originate any of my ideas) have been
dropped.
