CIRCLING THE WAGONS One is certainly disappointed in Joel Channing's behavior at the last Board meeting. I had rated him, along with Sam Sloan, as our two finest Board members. He may still be a positive influence, but his comments about Donna Alarie, who has brought up disturbing news indeed, were uncalled for. To the man's credit, he has apologized.

Yes, and thank you for pointing this out. I have been constantly attacked and maligned for the information I have provided, but one by one everything I have written is being proven true. If and when the tapes of the five meetings I attended as a member of the board are ever posted, as required by the by-laws, you will be able to see that the true situation is vastly worse than even I...

I've seen it a couple of time here in NYC

In a tournament game recently, in a tense endgame, my opponent made a move (picked up a piece, moved it to another square, and released the piece). He then didn't press the clock button. I didn't even notice that latter omission; I thought for a while and then made a move, whereupon he said rather sharply, "You can't move yet. My turn isn't over. I didn't press the clock yet." Um.... OK .......

That was because nothing got done. The major issues facing the board and the federation were ignored, with the board acting like the proverbial ostrich who, when faced with danger, sticks his head in the sand. Sam Sloan

Since when? Remember that it was I, not Donna, who first raised this issue. I brought it up at my first meeting of the board after I had been elected, which was on August 14, 2006. At every one of the five meetings I attended as a member of the board, I raised this issue. I was always promised copies of the documents pertaining to the pension/ profit sharing plan but I never received even one...

Greetings Friends, I am a complete novice when it comes to copyright law. I would like to learn more. I chose a particular example to try and begin to understand. J.R. Capablanca's "Chess Fundamentals" was originally copyrighted in 1921. I see that several revisions of it have been copyrighted since then. Is it true that all US works before 1923 are now public domain? What is the...

In hopes of providing the group with some much-need comic relief, I submit the following link: http://www.flixxy.com/best-rube-goldberg-machine.htm Look for a self-moving chess set about halfway through.

After weeks, probably months, of reading about how GetClub's success against the Jester program, I finally went to the Web site again (I did not like the graphic chess board before) and played a couple of games. This site (ludochess.com) claims that Jester is the world's strongest Jave chess program, so it seems ludicrous that the games Sanny has presented here are a fair representation of its...

Last 2 days I found players were easily beating the GetClub Chess as there were 2 bugs in the game. Those Bugs has been removed. So it will play better than earlier. Play a Game: http://www.GetClub.com/Chess.html If you still find weaknesses in the game let me know it. Explain the mistake well So that I understand what to improve. Bye

I had people arguing it wasn't, because the starting positions were picked at random. Anyone here believe Fischer Random Chess is not an abstract strategy game? - Rich

I have been researching the question of habits of mind and culture as being promoted by and/or reflected by certain board games. In particular, I have been investigating whether weiqi/go is representative of the “Asian mind� and whether international chess is representative of the “Western mind.� Apparently, I am not alone in raising this question. Analysts in political and...

With all this lawsuit business and whatnot, I am curious how Mr. Sloan can help improve the state of chess. Mr. Sloan, can you speak up please? - Rich
