Jun-12-10    myschkin: . . . Robert von Weizsäcker* (born 1954) is a Professor of Economics at the University of Munich and President of the DSB (Deutscher Schachbund) since 2007. He is an International Correspondence Chess GM. Trivia: The oldest son of Richard von Weizsäcker the first president of the reunited Germany. *(pronounced "fon why-tsecker") Oct-04-10    BobCrisp: <One particularly drastic story, which I am still following up, concerns Robert von Weizsaecker, President of the German Chess Federation and Karpov supporter. He apparently ended up in hospital with a suspected heart attack, in the immediate aftermath of being threatened with legal action by a prominent FIDE board member. Once again, I am seeking further information on this disturbing story, but the fact of von Weizsaecker's collapse in the meeting hall has already been confirmed to me by two witnesses.> http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail...
