"gentlemanly"? ROFL you sir are no gentleman! You are a COWARD and a PHONEY!
You, a mere garden-variety expert, have an opportunity to play a second game
with one of the greatest chess minds ever and you act with such pomposity as
to decline? Jackasses like you make me sick to my stomach! You try to play
the role of everyone's "moral superiour" but in reality you are just a
little chicken **** hypocrite. Do us all a favour and find a hole in the
ground to bury your head in!!

I disagree. both players did the right thing in a gentlemanly manner,
and neither player was responsible for the mistake. It is clear that if
the player had kept playing a new game against kasparov, the latter
would have put particular attention to that game, because losing it
would have been a great humiliation. The way it was handled was a
minimum-hassle solution. Kudos to all.
