 | | WannaBe: I love this quote, but can't find the players page. Spelling of last name perhaps? I ended up finding Jacquiline instead. Those who know the marvels of chess and wonder why this game of all games does not enjoy greater popularity may also ask why Pepsi-Cola is consumed by more people than Chateau Lafite, or the Beatles are more familiar than Beethoven. - Gregor Piatigorsky |

| Apr-03-15 | | technical draw: I met Gregor Piatigorsky in a chess tournament. He was a chess fan and patron. He took time before a concert to watch the final match of a tournament between Robert Byrne and Julio Kaplan (Byrne won). He had a young man carrying his cello case. Probably an aide or his son. The year was 1966 or 67. No one asked him to play Autumn Leaves. |

| Apr-07-15 | | technical draw: < And I am second. (As per usual)> Yeah, that's strange. It's like some malevolent force is acting here. Well let's wait a while before we call.......Ghost Busters! |
