Go up one level in this thread


Hi Fernando:  Well this kind of stuff happens; people start talk'in that they
are gonna do something, and its just bullshit when push comes to shove (or
rather you get involved and make it a real possible).

Anyway, not long ago, there was discussion on the newsgroup that IM Jon Schroer
was interested in playing any of the top programs in a serious chess match.  Jon
is a serious (and also involved in Internet chess & with a chess software
company), person, so if you want to set something up (or if any of us do!?) with
him, he would be an ideal player to involve - A strong International Master with
a classical chess style.
