It is very easy to taken in by Xie jungs open letter where she tries to curry
sympathy with the chess loving masses-and try to drum up opinion against
junior.however one snetence gives the game away-her refusal to play by
telephone-i dont see the diff between playing over the net (which after all is
nothing but a telephone line) and playing over a conventional phone-in either
case it would be very difficult to verify cheating unless an unbiased moderator
was physically present at each site.

Her refusal to play by phone when the internet connections were down completely
exposes her thoroughly
