I wasted in 2000 time to Peter Skinner when he wanted to
organize a tournament. After it turned out to be a shithead,
who i took serious after he had called me, i then dropped
the idea.

As usual i hardly read postings from dudes who are in my alltime
idiots gallery (currently Russell Reagan topping with the
funny question where we need an openings book at all for), otherwise
i would have seen of course sooner that Strickland = Skinner.

When i read about the tournament here i directly realized that i
had censored a bunch of accounts at different servers from Strickland
and less from Peter Skinner. Also i realized that Peter Skinner
had dissappeared from online computerchess, which in itself is
amazing and not logical at all, as idiots have all time of their
life to practice their favourite hobby. And when i read that
both Skinner and Strickland had 100% the same ideas to setup
a tournament, using the same childish way of writing, it was obvious
from my side that Skinner = Strickland.

Some pressure onto the ICGA to organize something in USA (which
ain't going to happen if israel has a few dollars for Levy to organize
world champs 2004 in israel) i found great. That's why i didn't tell
anyone what my guess was, for which i apologize.

Then i started talking online with some Americans who were celebrating
the postings here as if they were going to get a second chance in life.
It's then that i realized that i should ship a few persons the truth
regarding Strickland's idiocy here, to prevent them from wasting more
time onto Skinner.

Note that i even had missed a few postings where he claimed several
things among which to have sponsors. 100% the same words he used in 2000 towards
me and several
european computerchess enthusiastics who favoured the idea to setup
something in North America's again.

When a few days later Skinner posted how good Skinner is,
i was of course under my chair from laughter. This posting i
consider to be literature in my alltime gallery :)

Best regards,
Vincent
