Thanks.

I got in on this one a little late.

Wilma,

I tried to search Dejanews for the earlier thread you spoke of. All I
found was one on intelligence of grandmasters and what other fields
their intelligence might have qualified them for. It has 61 threads
so mit may have gotten pretty far-ranging.

Do you know any keywords I could search for to find the thread you
spoke of?

Thanks.

Greg

Occasionally I wonder what chess grandmasters do when they are away
from the
game.
Do any of them fly aircraft? Any gourmet cooks among them? Have
any
experienced combat in the military? Any fine artists? Have any become
wealthy
outside chess? Anything else that might be interesting?
