Oct-24-08 Anand-Kramnik World Championship Match (2008)

RubinsteinAK: All of this bickering only proves that a match is needed to solve this impasse. What I want to know is where Schiller found out that the match is in 2007, when the Kramnik interview mentions September 2006, specifically. Do you have another source, Schiller? 2007 actually makes
