Well, Jon lives in North Corolina, so I know that this could make any particular match setup that requires him to be in a different place, a loginstical arrangement too. Naturally if there are sponsors who have a financial plan for a computer versus human match, I think Jon could well travel. (but keep in mind, I'm not speaking directly for him). If there's an interesting event that can be set up using Internet resourses, that could conceivably work out well too, especially If Jon Schroer has people (or his company), who want to promote an event for him in North Corolina. Again, my thinking is not meant to focus on any one individual, and/or chess player, (such as Jon), but was just meant to convey that where there is interested sponsors, there are Chess player's who are 'serious', and ready to play, and there are other's like the below mentioned player you were talking about, who when further inquired too, give 'all kind of excuses, and then just dissapears'. I know for a fact, that if Jon is contacted about some (potential),event, he will not give all kinds of excuses, and just dissapear, but would give considerate thought to it, and continue negotiations... mrslug - the inkompetent chess software addict!
