alexmagnus: The worst thing to me in the whole debate is Kramnik claiming he showed concern for Naroditsky's health during the latter's final stream. Concern? It was pure <mockery>. If this is the way VK expresses concern, I don't want anyone, ever, to have an emergency with only ...

alexmagnus: Whatever the cause of death, we've all seen that final stream. Even if his death turns out to be unrelated to Kramnik, it doesn't make Kramnik less of a bully.
