| Jesuitic Calvinist: British GM who made a lot of money in the IT sector. As Norwood's most-played openings show, he is also an avid hypermodernist. |

| Everett: Wrote a book on 1...g6. Some interesting ideas, like the Advanced Gurgendize. Tricky stuff. |

| IMlday: D Norwood vs L Day, 1989
A crazy game. I think I castled too soon and he got away. :-| |
|

| Jesuitic Calvinist: Yes, castling on move 43 was way too committal; better to wait and see what happens in the endgame first. It certainly was a crazy game. |

| whiskeyrebel: I've read Norwood's book on the modern..it's got some fine ideas..and is fun to read. I read his weekly column regularly on line. His irreverant writing style is a breath of fresh air...the chess world needs more creative writers like him. |

| WMD: <British GM who made a lot of money in the IT sector.> Any hopes that Messrs. Norwood and Hennigan would become the sugar daddies of British chess didn't last long. |

| Joshka: <whiskeyrebel> yes, just found out he has been writing with Short on the "Telegraph"...great writing style indeed! |

| ray keene: norwoods column was there last saturday-tho somewhat hard to follow. malcolm pein has replaced short on the sunday telegraph-chess is back -according to the paper irself-by popular demand-so for once chessplayers did use thier muscle to complain. they shd do the same with chess on tv!! |

| aragorn69: Thx for the prompt answer, Ray. I was however refering to the absence of any new Norwood article on the internet site http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/mai... . His last text there dates back form August 14th... However, I am glad his witty chess journalism is back at least in its printed form. Even though, I for one won't profit from it anymore since I don't live in Europe... ))-; |

|

| WMD: Talking of which, Big Ron Atkinson is back doing football commentary, on UKTV G2. |

| mack: A long way away from Marcel Desailly in the BBC1 studio, it has to be said. |
|

| WMD: Yes, I think UKTV are broadcasting from a warehouse in London. |

| WMD: What is Ian Wright wearing? |
|

|
| mack: 'Wrighty' should really go back to presenting dull gameshows, he's wasted on the BBC. |
|
| Jun-18-06 |
| WMD: Well, he helps make up the BBC quota of black faces. |

| haggai: Hi,
I hope I'm not intruding. In 1993 David Norwood and Jane Seymore published an article where they'd shown a position where Deep Thought could have play and draw, but unbelievably took the rook and lost. I'm looking for that position and was wondering if anybody can send me by mail the position of the aforementioned game. Thanks! |
|

| mojo93033: <Haggai> You can find that position by clicking here: http://www.fortunecity.com/emachine... Scroll down to the bottom and it's in the left red box. |
