Mar-20-08    midknightblue: Mr Meyers, I dont know if you come to chessgames. If so, I would like let you know of my appreciation for your game Mayers Gugliamone recently published in NIC yearbook 86. Also, I am quite jealous that you travel the world playing chess tournaments. :) Best wishes for continued success.
