A Typically Misleading Statement by Gregory Alexander by samsloan
A typically false and misleading statement by Gregory Alexander. He makes it sound like he used to play 20 years ago and has been organizing for 20 years. In reality, Gregory joined the USCF for the first time in his life only recently, and played in the first USCF games in his life on 8-12-07, less than two months go. It was a three game affair. Gregory has never directed a USCF rated chess...

The Polgar Exclusive by B. Lafferty[_2_]
Apparently she doesn't know what the word exclusive means. She has an interview with Anand that is on ChessCafe linked form her blog which she claims is an exclusive. But, but.......it's not exclusive. Anand talked to others, like India news people, print and TV. Perhaps Susan needs to brush up on the meaning of English words. Here are some other words and terms for her to...

Efforts to Obtain Corporate Sponsorship for Chess by samsloan
Thank you very much for this excellent posting, Kevin (one of the few times when I really liked what you wrote). As you may recall, two candidates for the recent Executive Board election claimed as a campaign promise that if elected they would bring in millions of dollars in corporate sponsorship. I have just been wondering what they plan to do that you did not do, and how they believe that...

Letters from Iwo Jima by Sam Sloan
One problem with this movie is that it appears to be a historical documentary. Some of the things that really did happen are mixed in with things that are pure speculation. For example, the baron who came with his horse who had won the Olympic Gold Medal was a real person. He really had won the Olympic Gold Medal and he really was friends with Mary Pickford. He really did die on Iwo Jima. Sounds...

Prior Censorship--USCF Forums by B. Lafferty[_2_]
The USCF forums have now sunk to the level of the Polgar Blog. Selected poster, moi being one, must now have posts reviewed before being posted. So, here's what upset them so: by Brian Lafferty on Mon Oct 01, 2007 5:43 am #71978 1. Make vicious anonymous attack on other candidate. 2. Attack a critics with defamatory communications behind their back. 3. Attack critics by impersonating them.

New Polgar Conflict of Interest by B. Lafferty[_2_]
Now she's going to compete online with Chess Life. Does this person have no shame?
