| | perfidious: Results from all this will provide even more fuel for those who would wish to slag Carlsen as something other than the strongest player in captivity. Line forms to the right, <anti-messiah>. |

| Jan-10-22 | | Sally Simpson: <' May we hope to see a front page display of Tata Steel soon?'> One of the enticements for becoming a paying premier member is 'turn off advertisements.' Tata Steel is a registered company and using it's name will renege on C.G's. agreement to show no adverts. The will have to call it 'A chess Tournament Somewhere in Europe.' else the sub payers can demand a refund. |
