| jahhaj: <HeMateMe: Nigel, there was a recent game at Gibralter, Kamsky/Kosteniuk, where the opening was labelled "Caro Kan Short variation." Is that a reference to a variation of the opening, which you popularized, or is it just a physical description of some variation of the Caro?> LOL, the problems of having a surname which is also an adjective. I remember a Kasparov quote before his match with Nigel, something along the lines of 'It will be Short, and it will be short!' |

| parmetd: I dunno Nigel... I think your score at Corus does not represent how well you played! Sometimes things just work out like that. you were very close to finishing several nice wins off. |

| HeMateMe: Is the Superbowl widely simulcast in England, in the pubs? Just curious. World Cub soccer, the other 'football superbowl' is in a lot of the bars here, but not everywhere. It's the one time a lot of USA fans will watch soccer, the casual fan. |

| Kasparock: Hello GM Short!Please answer me, did you really believe back then, that you played Bobby over the net? I cannot believe that a GM like you was so much "cheated" and made all those statements. Today, do you think that there is a slight possibility that this encounter really happened? |

| DaveyL: I think Nigel has long since gone on record to retract that claim. |

| HeMateMe: you've forced us to watch Simon Cowell once a week. Turnabout is fair play. |
