From chessdiscussion today: by PaulTruong on Mon Mar 10, 2008 3:40 pm I have the highest respect for Mark Nibbelin, Sevan Muradian and Bill Brock.

How Many Employees Does the USCF Have? by Ted E Bear
Anyone know? Would the figure be more than 15 full time employees? Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, does not apply unless there are 15 or more full time employees.

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...

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....
