| |
| WMD: Kramnik, Anand, Ivanchuk et al. are streets ahead of Fischer and Botvinnik. One claim of Kasparov's that I'm wholly in agreement with is that the difference in opening preparation between the sixties and the present in top level chess is both quantitatively and qualitatively enormous. ... |
