An amusing game by
David Richerby
This game was played recently on a web correspondence server I play
on. White is one of the strongest players on the site; Black is not.
The final position is a thing of great beauty.
Dave.

Mig Greengard has been nominated for deletion on Wikipedia by

Mig Greengard has been nominated for deletion on Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mig_Greengard
Mig Greengard is definitely one of my favorite people. However, he
easily meets the standards of notability set for inclusion on
Wikipedia. Among many other things, he was director of the New York
Office of the Kasparov Chess Foundation and recently he was awarded
"Chess Journalist of the Year"...

Do you trade Knights for Bishops ? by
SAT W-7
If you have the opportunity to trade a knight for a bishop do you
take it ??
The bishop has long range power and the knight short range
power......# of squares that they can control......
For me it depends on how the game is going.

Anonymice for Truong by
parrthenon@cs.com
A POSSIBLE MOTIVATION
I am trying to understand a reasonable motivation
for defenders of Paul Truong and Susan Polgar to be
so consistently anonymous. It is easy to understand

HILLERY'S GOAL.
Was to become editor of Chess Life. Instead he had to content himself
with editing a rag called The Chess Journalist.
He is a prominent member of the Good Old Boys 4H Club in Southern
California: Hanken, Hillery and Hough.
I have some reservations about the USCF Forums moderation, but
