  Penguincw: Happy 29th birthday to GM Matthieu Cornette.
Aug-27-16  PhilFeeley: Where's the game between him and Jolly at this year's French Championship? It's the only one he lost on his way to winning the title - oddly, to the lowest rated player.

  perfidious: <saffuna>, perhaps Cornett's ambitions for a supergroup would have fared better, had he possessed a vocalist the calibre of David A Gates.

  saffuna: I think he would have done better dipping into the Raymond Charles Cannon.
Apr-05-23  Cassandro: He is fond of playing the Giuoco Piano which is not so strange.

Cornett and Piano go well together.
