Nov-01-07    perfidious: In 1987, Alex and I played the under-2400 section at the New York Open; his first-round opponent was a little girl with a teddy bear, and she rolled him up. We now know her well as Judith Polgar. Nov-02-07    RookFile: I remember Alex telling that story to Harry Lyman at the Boylston chess club. He showed the game too - something about a discovered attack leading to bad news on the king's rook file. Aug-05-08    myschkin: . . . Photos (2008) http://tinyurl.com/5ukmrz http://tinyurl.com/566l9b with GM Larry Christiansen Aug-05-08    RookFile: Well, I guess this picture answers the question somebody was asking in the Larry Christianson forum about whether Larry is still playing these days. Aug-05-08    myschkin: . . . It killed two birds with one stone ;)
