Phil Innes expounds on "Journalism" by
samsloan
Those of us who want to take a break from discussions of serious
topics and just to enjoy a good laugh for a change need go no further
that look at what our "Nearly an IM" Phil Innes says when he calls
himself a "journalist" (at the genius level no less) and expounds on
the subject of "Journalism". Apparently, Innes must feel that anyone
who posts a lot to this group is a "journalist", as he has...

Wait...Sam Sloan is a USCF board member? by
whystopnow
I last read this group about five years ago...it was hoot then,
between Sam's schizophrenic ramblings and lawsuits, the Crossville
debacle, shouts of corruption everywhere, blah blah...I eventually got
bored.
Today I check back for the first time and see that Sam Sloan is a
board member!?!? My God, that is funny.
Please tell me members' dues are being used to fly him back and forth

Revised analysis of Mottershead / Jones / Ulevitch reports by
Guy Macon
For the record, here is my analysis. I have some degree
of expertise in this area; I estimate my own skills to
be roughly equal to those of Mottershead, and I estimate
both of us to have skills well below those of Robert
Jones and David Ulevitch, both of whom are well-known
experts.
I would also like to note that when I first posted this
analysis, I invited those who think that Truong...

Marcus W. Roberts by
jeremy.p.spinrad@vanderbilt.edu
I have taken a great deal of guilty pleasure in reading the posts of
Mr. Roberts. My daughter had always found St Kitts and Nevis an
amusing little country even before I read his posts, and we both have
enjoyed its appearance on the (sur)real world stage. I would feel
quite bad, however, if I would read in the papers that he had been
driven to some desperate act because of his perceived enemies....

Second Draft: Invitation to Bridge by
samsloan
Introduction
Invitation to Bridge is a basic beginners book. It is suitable even
for someone who has never previously seen a deck of cards. It was
first published in 1950.
It is important to remember that Bridge was a relatively young game in
1950. Contract Bridge was first popularized in 1925. The First Bermuda
Bowl, which is the term for World Team Championships, was held in
1950, the same...

Well, it is quite apparent you have taken up the hew and cry of Susan

Dead board = dead board (bored) game! by
parrthenon@cs.com
IS CHESS DYING?
This topic is addressed in chapter 15 of THIS CRAZY WORLD OF CHESS by
GM Larry Evans.
Also see: http://tinyurl.com/2fdrth
Chess is different today. Now players have vast databases at their
fingertips and openings have been analyzed so extensively that master
games often begin in earnest after a dozen moves instead of move one.

How about a Baby Level at GetClub? by
Sanny
Now since I find many players are unable to win the Beginner Level I
am thinking to introduce a Baby Level which will play in just 2
seconds, And will play even weaker moves than Beginner Level.
As I find many people are unable to beat the Beginner Level.
What other modification you want. Are you still not satisfied with
GetClub Chess?
Do you want me to include Correspondence Game where...

Trolgar Blows Smoke Again by

From chessdiscussion. From the syntax, it appears to have been
authored by Truong. Susie's English language skills aren't this polished.
