He is.

I am requesting Mr. Mitchell remove my copyrighted material, and Dr.

use of my copyrighted material clearly violates the US Copyright Code:

Pardon me for trusting the US Copyright Code instead of your laughable

For the record:
I am formally requesting an interview with Mr. Brennen and/or Mr.
Kingston on the topics of CHESS.

They will have the right to review all questions in advance should they
agree. They will also have the right to review all of their answers
prior to submission. They will also have the right to remove four of
ten questions proposed and replace with any question from a group of
four alternate questions.

This is an honest and valid offer.

I would also extend the same offer to Dr. Blair.

In fact, I have the right to ignore any and all questions by
Rob Mitchell. I do not wish to relinquish that right. Beyond
that, if Rob Mitchell is seeking my permission to reproduce
material by me at Chessville, he is certainly not going to
get it.

Satan will be wearing ice skates before Mr. Mitchell ever gets
permission to reproduce my copyrighted material.

For an article about a competent parodist, I recommend:

http://www.slate.com/id/2151657/?nav=tap3

And unlike Rob, he always seeks permission before publishing his.

What makes you so special that someone should interview you, Rob?

It's not obvious to me that mechanical translation of an entire text
into dialect fits nicely into what we traditionally call parody or
satire.

You guys might break new ground by litigating this.

I am NOT special. :-) I was offering to interview them. Heck, I will
interview anyone.
