Karpov deserves it.

The tournament dates are Dec 19-23. They are not really looking for big
pre-game publicity because Lindsborg is a very small place and the event is
totally booked up.

Anatoly Evgenievich will not be 'moving' to Kansas, as far as I understand


I could write more of the chess school, however it is proper to wait for
official announcements which will be forthcoming from gospodin Mikhail
Korenman, the director of the school.

I think there may be a public live match broadcast, if so, I will post
times, dates and URL here - although this broadcast may be a private one.

Both Karpov and Kasparov give much of their time, money and support to
fundraising events as well as directly working with disadvantaged people.

Cordially, Phil Innes

Hi Phil,

Me?

Michael! one day we'll play chess and after that we'll both be scared of
each other, though, I expect, for completely different reasons.

Otherwise I must admit I do not grok the fullness of your message.

What is this 'grok' Phil? a totally ugly expression, who is responsible

'craick' - egads!..
