The world has become a better place because of you, and chess only played a small part in that. What could have been will be seen in another universe.

Jan-24-25  FM David H. Levin: Hi, Sofia. I see that the profile for <whiteshark> says, "Member since Aug-22-06". Were you a CG member at seven years old, or has your user name been associated with more than one person?
Jan-24-25  stone free or die: <David> - I think <whiteshark> might have been quoting the player's bio from somewhere - note the TL;DR.

Looks like a Linkedin profile, but <whiteshark> didn't supply the source reference.

Jan-24-25  whiteshark: <FM David H. Levin> The entire description above the link comes from Sofia. I should probably have stated this explicitly as a quote.

I only wrote the last two sentences (after the link).

/Best regards
