Do they say anything about the fact that he was kicked out of the USCF and Goichberg and Channing would not let him back in? -- Sam Sloan Not mentioned in this article. However, GM Evans in his Chess Life column at the time criticized the expulsion of Bobby Fischer from the USCF as "unwise." |

Sam Sloan I was kicked out of the USCF. when the company goes bankrupt, we will see how this attitude of arrogance contines. On a business level, USCF has lost GOODWILL due to the Trolgar scandle. That will sink the company unless we take collective action, which is impossible, becasue some think that being a "Chess Grandmaster" keeps them out of jail. GM Sorvokin died under suspicious circumstances. My attempted arrest demonstrates to me, that, in fact, GM SORVKIN WAS KILLED BY FIDE! Sue me!

Rather, you asked for a refund of your $1000 life membership dues and Bill Hall complied with alacrity. If that is not true, I would like to hear about it. Sam Sloan |

Sam Sloan- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Sam Sloan, This is a false rumor. What happened was I told Bill Hall I was going to call the Tennessee DA and complain about being banned from the newsgroups (forums) unless I got my 1,000 dollars back, becasue they were halting discussions about child safety. I had to deal with this problem with FIDE, I was worried about being arrested, and I was sending everything I could outside of the USA to protect my nation. Human life is more important than membership in a chess organziation. Paul had threatened to expel me from the USCF, and in fact, he is himself responsible for making the "offensive" posts calling Mike Nolan a NAZI. Paul Truong FRAMED ME. I am planing to file a protest with Secretary Rice. I am an Ambassador, and I have been expelled, in violation of international law, from the US Chess Federation. Anything I posted as an act of my mission, and that has been docuemtned at the state deparment. I AM CLAIMING DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY FROM EXPULSION - AT THE US STATE DEPARTMENT. I don't really want back in (40 or 50 dollars is ok) I want to FORCE A PEACE MEETING. We all need to sit down at the State Department and talk about this. They expelled me from the FORUMS without a hearing. I never even got a chance to appeal Marcus Roberts Permanent Delegate (Ambassador) of St Kitts and Nevis to FIDE |

DEAR LARRY PARR
In a message dated 3/3/2008 writes: Thank you for the link to The Bobby Fischer That We Loved. by Larry Evans. I don't subscribe to Chess Life and might never have found it on my own. Fisher certainly was an exceptionally sad case in life -- so talented and brilliant and yet a flawed diamond. After all that deranged Fischer worship, Evans was refreshingly honest. I especially appreciated Evans' question when he discussed the impact of computerized chess: "Why would anyone today devote a lifetime to mastering a game from which it's almost impossible to earn a living when a hand-held device can find the best move in a split second?" I also liked his answer to Frank Brady at the end of the article: "I try to make each game a work of art." I ask you, what better reason is there to devote one's life? wrote: THE BOBBY FISCHER THAT WE LOVED By GM Larry Evans http://tinyurl.com/2fdrth |
