Jan-15-11		wordfunph: no pic of WIM Viktorija Ni? i read from Chess Life January 2011 that she's the girlfriend of GM Yuri Shulman.

May-12-12		dumbgai: As of January 2011 she was basically half of Shulman's age. That's creepy.

May-21-12		Aware: <That's creepy.> That's pimp son!

May-22-12		dagwood2005: "As of January 2011 she was basically half of Shulman's age. That's creepy." Um, no. Actually Shulman is a hero--a role model for men everywhere.

May-23-12		diceman: <whiteshark: Viktorija Ni learned chess at the age of 7 from her mother, Polina, who is an Expert.> So Ni didn�t learn on daddy�s knee.

Mar-10-13		Jim Bartle: I think I've found the knights that say "Ni!"
