Wow, this is probably a work of HUGE interest to
most chess players-- especially those here in rgc.
Ranking just behind "How I Became a Nearly-an-IM"
and "Ten Common Spelling Errors and How to Aviod
Them", I expect.

I am wondering why Mr. Sloan wastes his time on
such nonsense, when he /could/ be writing a book of
his very own instead. For instance, "Learn Shogi: A
How-to Guide for Chess Players", or "Damiano's
Defense: Black to Play and Win!", or even "The
Cheapskate's Guide to Prostitution" would seem to
target a *much wider* audience. Or what about: "An
Insider's Guide to Dirty Politics in Chess"? Here's
one that could possibly actually make money: "How
to Beat Bobby Fischer at Chess in Under Twenty
Moves".
