COULD AGREE WITH YOU MORE!

What an empty-headed, insolent little jerk you really are, Greg.
Sort of like an apoplectic chihuahua: full of sound and fury,
signifying nothing, but barking at everyone. -- Taylor Kingston to

quite the same thing as having GM Evans hire a
prostitute; you see, some folks believe that a man
ought not to pay money for sex, that a woman
ought not to take such monies, and so on; it's a
religious thing, so perhaps TK wouldn't understand.

match with Fischer in 1975.


It is unclear where or why hearsay enters into
the matter. AK has written plenty himself, so
it is quite unnecessary to introduce the blurring
of having his comments relayed through others,
then through Cold War rhetoricians and their ilk.

As far as I know, the only top player who
seemed fully objective on such matters, whose
writings could be trusted, was GM Botvinnik.
Just about everyone else has been affected by
the mountain of biased writings which have
appeared over the years in the lunatic-controlled
press. Add to that the fact that these loonies
cannot be trusted to report any opinions which
might contradict their own biases, and you get
an idea of just how little such comments are
really worth.

From LP's perspective, anything reported or
believed by players like LA or RK is as good as
gold. Meanwhile, there are others whose own
reports and opinions are kept, you know-- hush,
hush! And so it goes... .
