  perfidious: <WannaBe>: Would have answered that question for you, but the video has been deleted.

<RookFile: Nice woman.....>

Seconded: had the pleasure of meeting Sharon as early as the 1983 and 1985 New England blitz championships, though our only serious game was at the '88 US Open.

Last time we met was in New Jersey in the early 1990s. Believe she married Joel Friedman (whom you may also remember from the Boylston) and they eventually headed for California.

  mjmorri: I played Sharon once in 1984. She accepted a draw in a winning pawn endgame, lucky me.
