I initially missed the article that appeared in the New York Times two
days ago, but this is a truly great development:

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/20/us/20chess.html

What needs to be noted (and what nobody else has commented on thus
far) is that this program comes from Erik Anderson and his American
Foundation for Chess.

It also should be recalled that a certain person was attacking Mr.
Anderson relentlessly last year.

I want to point out that Erik Anderson was one of the most frequent
victims of attack by the "Fake Sam Sloan" whom we now know to be Paul
Truong. Here are a few examples posted to rgcp by The Fake Sam Sloan.
They are from the Mottershead Report. They easily explain why Mr.
Anderson wants nothing to do with the USCF. They are all posted from
and These are NOT my email

There will be no 2007 US Championship. It has been officially
cancelled. I don't want any stinking money from a crook like Erik
Anderson. There's no need to spend $250K for the US Championship. We
can do it for $3K in Brooklyn at the local YMCA. The USCF needs to
start saving money now.

It's after midnight and no proposal from the AF4C. That means that

need any stinking AF4C or Erik Anderson. Larry Cohen is my answer.

are gone. Next will be Goichberg and Channing. Dubeck and Marinello
want me to stop Polger from being elected. Those are my next

Erik Anderson and the AF4C convinced American Airlines to be a major
sponsor for the USCF. Mr. Goichberg and Schultz decided that it's a
good idea to include Sam Sloan in the negotiation for this deal. After
receiving a nice letter from Mr. Sloan, American Airlines said never
again. The deal was dead. Let's vote for Sam Sloan, Schultz, Lux and
Jones! 4 years with them will surely kill the USCF for good.

Again, I object. It is important for the members to know how the
postings by "The Fake Sam Sloan" affected the outcome of the election.
In one of the examples you deleted, the Fake Sam Sloan attacked four
of the candidates, when he wrote, "Let's vote for Sam Sloan, Schultz,
Lux and Jones! 4 years with them will surely kill the USCF for good."
He also attacked Don Schultz, Bill Goichberg and Erik Anderson in the
same posting.

Since you were a strong supporter of the Fake Sam Sloan and a strong
opponent of the Real Sam Sloan during the election campaign, you are
obviously biased and you should disqualify yourself or be disqualified
from moderating postings on this subject. You should also be
disqualified from moderating my postings because you are the only
moderator who is also a defendant in the lawsuit I filed against
Truong et al. You should have the other moderators moderate my
postings.
