Jul-02-25 Edward Lasker   wrap99: I would suggest that people who write code would be sensitive to the inefficiencies of descriptive notation. More broadly, perhaps advances in chess have parallel advances in science & technology.      Apr-14-25 Clyde Nakamura   wrap99: Met him in LA maybe 1986. Nice fellow, sorry to read of his passing.      Jan-13-25 Horatio Caro    wrap99: <mifralu> I believe I read in The Making of the Atomic Bomb that Sir James Chadwick was interned in what had been a horse stable at that racecourse.

If every human did as much for his fellow humans as Geraldo Rivera did, we would be living in an ...      Jan-09-24 Arthur R Spiller   wrap99: reading bukowski's book post office -- they were of similar age, i wonder if the knew each other?      Sep-25-23 Randall Hough   wrap99: I am guessing people from poorer countries are very familiar with less-than-new cars and know how to deal with their failures.      Sep-25-23 Sidney J Rubin   wrap99: @47pitch: interesting but not surprising that sid was a math guy -- had he been born a little later I bet he would have become a software developer.      May-26-23 John Brown     Dec-31-22 Rajan Ayyar    Sep-09-22 Hans Niemann     Aug-10-22 Arturo Pomar    Aug-10-22 Isaak Mazel     Aug-08-22 Tim Krabbe     Aug-08-22 M Sisniega vs J Fedorowicz, 1978    Aug-05-22 William R Broughton     Aug-03-22 Jimmy Lakdawala    Aug-03-22 Rene Portela    Aug-02-22 Paul Leonhardt     Aug-02-22 G Schories vs P Leonhardt, 1933    Jul-31-22 Portisch vs Short, 1975     Jul-31-22 Koltanowski vs W Windom, 1960    Jul-31-22 Walter Cunningham    Jul-31-22 Robert W Walker    Jul-31-22 Karl Burger     Jul-29-22 Charles Vezin     Jul-23-22 G Small vs T Hannibal, 1977    Jul-14-22 Leonov    Jul-13-22 Tal vs Z Pigits, 1953     Jun-25-22 Abe Turner     Jun-25-22 Dennis Fritzinger    Jun-25-22 Felix Sicre    Jun-22-22 Theodore Bullockus     Jun-18-22 Boris Siff    Jun-17-22 J Mora Corbera vs Taimanov, 1955     Jun-16-22 Morphy vs J Freeman, 1858     Jun-08-22 Albert Sandrin     Jun-08-22 Robert G Konkel     Jun-08-22 Walter Lovegrove     May-31-22 Jacques Mieses     May-26-22 Nick Maffeo    May-22-22 Charles C Crittenden    Mar-30-22 Mark Orfalea     Mar-03-22 David Blohm     Nov-25-21 James Maki    Nov-18-21 Max Euwe     Nov-02-21 Roger Bowen    Nov-02-21 Nick de Firmian     Nov-01-21 Kibitzer's Café     Oct-13-21 Tarrasch vs Euwe, 1928    Aug-19-21 David Janowski     Aug-16-21 Adolf Herzog    Aug-02-21 Walter John     Jul-23-21 M Weiss vs B Lasker, 1911    May-28-21 Samuel Reshevsky     May-24-21 Giri vs V S Gujrathi, 2021    Feb-16-21 Lewis Cohen     Jan-30-21 Larry Remlinger    Jan-23-21 N Whitaker vs J Frankle, 1974     Aug-08-18 Richard Chess    Aug-07-18 Ron Frasco     Aug-07-18 Mike Chess     Jul-29-18 Topalov vs S Zhigalko, 2008     Jul-29-18 James A Thinnsen     Jul-03-18 Emanuel Lasker     Jun-28-18 Samuel Factor     Jun-26-18 Calvin Blocker     Jun-26-18 Z Harari vs M Rodshtein, 2017    Jun-26-18 Zaki Harari     Jun-25-18 William Duckworth     Jun-25-18 Maurice Schippers    Jun-23-18 Perry Youngworth     Jun-23-18 E Formanek vs D Fritzinger, 1976    Jun-20-18 Solomon Gotthilf     Jun-16-18 Fritz Riemann     Jun-10-18 Capablanca vs M Karff, 1941     Jun-10-18 Jacqueline Piatigorsky     Jun-05-18 Gabor Nagy     May-27-18 Dejan Tasev    May-06-18 Larry Nezhni     May-05-18 Frank Street     Apr-22-18 Douglas Root     Apr-17-18 0     Apr-07-18 Orlando Husbands    Feb-10-18 Philipp Meitner     Nov-28-17 Zineb Dina Abdi    Nov-02-17 Haridas Pascua     Apr-04-17 M A Schapiro vs Reshevsky, 1920    Mar-20-17 M Shapiro     Mar-18-17 Anatoly Lein     Mar-04-17 Jay Bonin     Feb-20-17 Gisela Gresser    Jan-18-17 Edwin Ziegler Adams    Jan-14-17 Alexander Alekhine     Jan-07-17 Aleksandar Matanovic     Dec-30-16 Henri Baucher    Dec-07-16 Kibitzer's Café     Nov-26-16 Robson vs Y Vovk, 2015     Nov-23-16 Aronian vs Rapport, 2016     Nov-20-16 Carlsen -
