Chronos repair by Michael Steen
Where can I get the Chronos repaired? The LCD has given up the ghost. Is DCI still in business? I called the phone # I found for them, but no one answered. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I plan to take over the world by samsloan
In fact, I do have been plans for the USCF which are, in short, to take over the world. However, for the time being, I have to have much more modest goals. Right now, I need to be like the Little Dutch Boy who stuck his finger in the ass. You must know the story, but if you do not, Holland is majority below sea level, but they keep their country going by building huge pussy to

New play about Morphy by parrthenon@cs.com
CHANGE OF PACE Instead of all the petty bickering and mindless character assassination that often takes place on this forum, it's a pleasure to find something real about chess history for a change. "This play premiered last November at The Players' Ring in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and the full text is presented with the author's permission. It spans Morphy's triumphant trip to Europe,...

I advocate sexual freedom for all USCF members by samsloan
I strongly advocate complete sexual freedom for all USCF members. Vote for me for 4 more years! If you vote for me, you'll get a free blowjob from my wife. If you can convince your friends to vote for me, you'll get a free blowjob from my girlfriend also. Sam Sloan

Dubeck, Sloan and Marinello will reign again by samsloan
I'm sure that the slate that Dubeck, Marinello and I put together will easily win the next election. Dubeck is proven to be a fox in chess politics. He helped me get elected. Now he'll knock out the Polgar machine as well. Please help by voting for me for 4 more years. Sam Sloan

repertoire book 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 by Beliavsky
Is there a good opening repertoire book for Black covering the Nimzo/Queen's Indian/Catalan complex after 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Bb4 or 3.Nf3 or 3.g3? Ideally it would cover similar lines against 1.c4 and 1.Nf3, such as 1.Nf3 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 Bb4. Thanks.

Conflict of interest - Bill Goichberg must resign immediately by samsloan
It is not a question of the board working with or against sponsors. The problem is Bill Goichberg conducting negotiations for the US Championship in complete secrecy. Bill Goichberg consults with nobody and tells nobody what he is doing. He is self-appointed as "THE DECIDER". Similarly, Bill Goichberg keeps writing letters to the USCF's attorney Michael Matsler (the same attorney who opposed me...

Only visitor? by zdrakec
Hello historians: Brady in "Profile of a Prodigy" claims that during the 1962 Candidate's tournament, when Tal fell ill and had to be hospitalized, the only participant in the tournament who took the time to visit him was Fischer. Is there any substantiation elsewhere that only Fisher visited Tal? That seems unlikely to me (which of course doesn't mean it isn't true). Did anyone else who was at...

Old chess book for sale by toadwarble
I have a 99-year old book "Tthe Chess Player's Compendium" by William Cook concentrating on openings given to me some years ago by my great-aunt. You can see how much has changed in the interval - various openings such as the Sicilian are dismissed in a few pages under a heading "Semi-Irregular Openings". It shows the first 20 moves of various lines of each opening with a verdict of plus for...

very short games in game database by Jud McCranie
The ChessBase database of games has a lot of strange short games. For instance, it has McMichael (2298) vs. Radovanovic (2217) in 2004: 1. b3 d5. 2. Bd2 0-1. Would a 2300 player resign in that position, or is the database wrong? (There are many other examples.) -- Replace you know what by j to email
