I do not think his demands are so unreasonable.

He wants to be paid the same as Kasparov, that seems to be the 'key' issue.

Perhaps, if Kasparov wants the fast-track back to the World Championship, he
should give a little and get the match under way. It should be an easy win
for Kasparov based on experience. His problem is 'time' he is aging now and
his mental form is decreasing as the years tick by.

A smart move would be to win the World Championship and retire from serious
play.

Hopefully, Garry will put his chess knowledge in print and share it with
generations to come !

Hopefully, but I hear he has just released a book detailing his
analysis of past masters : Lasker, Nimzovitch etc.

Lasker is one exceptional case who I rarely argue against, in that he
contiuned to beat masters well into his sixties.

Kasparov is showing an interest in politics after chess, so his exit
looks to be looming.
