- GM Ivan Radulov (when asked what he valued most in chess)

Jan-07-13  Eastfrisian: A well known player, with nearly no kibitz-notes. Is there nothing to say about him?
Jan-07-13  Kikoman: Happy 74th Birthday GM Ivan Radulov. :D
Jan-07-13  Nosnibor: Many happy returns of the day GM Radulov! I remember when you being a member of the Bulgarian team obtained the Bronze Medals in the 1966 Olympiad ahead of the U.S.A,West Germany,Hungary,Argentina,etal.and beating Yugoslavia in second place.You were also awarded a special prize by way of an inscribed watch for the second best score on your board namely 10.5 points from 14 games (75%)
Jan-07-13  theodor: Dear trainer (of the chess team of the institute of architecture and civil engeneering in Sofia - 1971 - 74 ), do you remember having beaten me twice, playing blind against me - in Varna, during the bulgarian university championship? During the second game, I awaked you a coupple of times, for asking your move! I wish you all the best, trainer!
