stupid", which was in response to the motion that was one vote away from passing that the US Championship tournament be canceled and replaced with a match between the champion and a challenger. That was not a false statement. It was a true statement. They were stupid. The USCF was formed in 1939 for the purpose of holding a US Championship tournament, as opposed to the previous practice of determining the championship by a match between the champion and a challenger. Abolishing the US Championship tournament would probably have required a change in the charter. Doing this without a vote by the membership or the delegates would have caused tremendous outrage. By the way, Goichberg voted for the motion to abolish the US Championship tournament, which shows that Goichberg does not have good judgment at times. Sam Sloan |

The chances of Paul being innocent are so close to zero as to be
infinitesimal. My wife is now taking a course in calculus in college and is studying limit theory, so I have had to brush up. The line gets closer and closer to the limit but never quite reaches there. However, we have to be practical. I am well aware of the risks of litigation. Judges often do crazy, irrational things, especially when pro se litigants are involved. Thus, if counsel for the USCF approaches me with something reasonable, I will certainly consider it. Meanwhile, I have an idea in my mind of a reasonable offer. However, so far nobody has contacted me and I doubt that will happen soon. Sam Sloan |

What I have been wondering is, let us say for the sake of argument,
that not only does the supposedly forthcoming report from an as yet unnamed "expert" find Truong guilty, but Truong is actually arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to prison, but still refuses to resign. What then? How can we kick him out? Mark Nibbelin, a defender of Truong, tries to compare his case to mine. The cases are completely different. Millions of people know about my case. The USCF voters certainly knew about it when they elected me. My entire website is devoted to it. I have written and sent thousands of emails about it. I displayed it prominently on the new blog I started yesterday at http://samsloan.blogspot.com The 2006 Delegates meeting that voted to require me to publish a statement about in Chess Life did not realize that I wanted to publish a statement about it in Chess Life and therefore did not object to it. Kind of like Burr Rabbit who says, "Please don't throw me into that briar patch." The motion passed only because Grant Perks got Herbert Rodney Vaughn, who posts here as Tanstaafl, seated as a delegate from Ohio, where he has never lived, just to try to overturn the election results in which I had defeated Grant Perks for election. Vaughn spoke repeatedly on the motion, tying up the meeting and nobody knew who he was. The motion passed by one vote, Vaughn's vote. In the two previous years, 2004 and 2005, a similar motion had been made by Tim Redman and had failed both times. In 2006, the maker of the original motion was Howard Cohen (brother of Larry, the infamous arbiter) and he thought that I had actually been convicted of Child Molestation. When he found out that the real case against me was a child custody case, he was appalled and said that he never would have made that motion and never would have voted for it had he known that.

What then? How can we kick him out? Question: in the Sam Sloan fantasy wherein Paul Truong is sent to prison, what exactly is the charge which would warrant a prison sentence (i.e. attempted murder of MR)? Mark Nibbelin, a defender of Truong, tries to compare his case to mine. The cases are completely different. Millions of people know about my case. The USCF voters certainly knew about it when they elected me. My entire website is devoted to it. I have written and sent thousands of emails about it. I displayed it prominently on the new blog I started yesterday athttp://samsloan.blogspot.com Mr. Sloan is famous the world over. Everyone knows about him and is concerned with the ups and downs of his latest, um, activities. (The only reason he has yet to appear on the cover of Time magazine is that they don;t want to make prior cover stories look bad in comparison.) The 2006 Delegates meeting that voted to require me to publish a statement about in Chess Life did not realize that I wanted to publish a statement about it in Chess Life and therefore did not object to it. Kind of like Burr Rabbit who says, "Please don't throw me into that briar patch." That was Brer Rabbit. He consistently outsmarted the likes of Brer Bear, much like Bugs Bunny outsmarted Porky Pig, the Roadrunner outsmarted Wile E. Coyote and I have outwitted Sanny's GetClub program (with a few exceptions). The motion passed only because Grant Perks got Herbert Rodney Vaughn, who posts here as Tanstaafl, seated as a delegate from Ohio, where he has never lived, just to try to overturn the election results in which I had defeated Grant Perks for election. Vaughn spoke repeatedly on the motion, tying up the meeting and nobody knew who he was. The motion passed by one vote, Vaughn's vote.

When he found out that the real case against me was a child custody case, he was appalled and said that he never would have made that motion and never would have voted for it had he known that. It looks like the voters in the USCF don't have a clue. Maybe someone should make a motion to prevent them from voting on anything ever again. -- help bot |

USCF, not destroy it. I have received a tremendous outpouring of support. I have received letters and telephone calls from all over the country supporting me. Not one letter or phone call has arrived disagreeing with what I have come. The members are fed up. This has been going on for years. The USCF just keeps sinking lower and lower, getting worse and worse and it is time somebody tried to do something about it. You are a new member of the USCF and do not know this history. Sam Sloan |

You are a new member of the USCF and do not know this history. Sam Sloan Sam, the members resoundingly rejected you in the last election. You received about half as many votes as in the previous election, despite a larger turnout. Are you really arguing with a straight face that some scurrilous postings on rgcp -- read by a mere handful, many of them not USCF members -- accounted for the difference? If anything, those posts got you a few sympathy votes. You were rejected by the voters because of your disastrous performance on the Board. "Not one letter or phone call has arrived disagreeing with what I have come (sic)." Why would the vast majority, who long ago gave up on you as a litigious loon, bother calling you? You're obviously a lost cause. Only your tens of followers would waste time speaking to you. |

Settlement negotiations are off for the time being, as real attorneys
have just appeared in the case. Sam Sloan |
