:-) Indeed, he is physically old for a chess player. However, he has remained
very active in the chess world (not as a player, but as a columnist and
commentator). So I would be very confident that he knows his modern opening

However, getting comfortable with an opening book editor was probably going to
be a difficult task for him, and I suspect that is why he declined our offer.
