What Truong did was illegal and may well have affected the election--not
just for Sloan but for other candidates. *And then we have the hypocrisy
of Truong/Polgar claiming the high road in the election when they are
really two of the dirtiest chess politicians who have ever lived.


Brian,
You do not know what anyone has or has not done. You should use more
care in your phrasing. Liability for your words may prove painful
otherwise.



As for who is acceptable and who isn't, when I discussed the prospects
of doing a chess-poker hybrid tournament on television, in order to
get chess on TV, I had people telling me the reputation of the U.S
Chess Federation, and their attempt to deal with minors, would make
that not a good idea.


As is evidenced by Sloans own webpages and the quality of content in
writing from many of his supporters online.

It seems to me that the USCF has been and is promoting scholastic events
all the time. *Give us the specifics of who told you it "would not be a
good idea."

Brian,
Why would anyone share any evidence with you? Conduct your own survey
if so inclined.

Rob
