I've looked at a couple of Java sites but none seem to be able to publish an entire game involving all the moves _including_ my own sidebar commentary. Does anyone have some links they could point me in? Thanks in advance. My email is fake so please reply here. - A.M.

Possible Chicago Bid to Hold the 2007 US Championship In the first place, I have the contract that was signed in 2000 with Erik Anderson. It is sitting right here on my desk. The reason I have it is that I demanded to see it the first thing I did when I got on the board in August, 2006. They told me that it had been lost but finally in late-September (after I kept making a big stink about it,...

December 31, 2006 Feuding parents move battle off chess boards By Daryl James Tribune Gilbert's chess community will have a chance to shine this Saturday when schoolchildren from across the state gather at Greenfield Junior High School for grade-level championships. The state tournament will be the latest of many chess extravaganzas in Gilbert since the U.S. Chess

It's after midnight and no proposal from the AF4C. That means that they're out and I will entertain bids from interested parties. We don't need any stinking AF4C or Erik Anderson. Larry Cohen is my answer. Sam Sloan

I am quite opinionated about this issue, but, since I will not (did not) qualify to play in 2007, I would hope the players who did already qualify and want to play have more say than I do.

Actually, the current board is one of the best, if not the best, in the recent history of the USCF. It's because I'm on it. In this board, there are no factions.
