Kibitzer's Corner
Feb-28-05  Avion: He is a master from Montréal, Québec, Canada.
He can get mad at you if you stare at him while he plays blitz.
Mar-20-07  e4Newman: Chess Canada Feb06 has a nice article on him, including a win with white over Igor Ivanov that doesn't appear in this database. There's no event associated with it in the magazine notes, probably a practice game. It begins:

1.b3 Nf6 2.Bb2 g6 3.Bxf6!?
