Folks,

I knew that you wanted to know why I am so tolerant about the events during the
Wch in Graz 2003. But see, I wasn't in that chess tournament myself. If I had
been with my program I would have protested against the many false decisions of
the TD from the Netherlands. I am a Dutch myself!

Throwing intentiously a drawn game just to let another participant have the
chance for a tie, this is, I know that from many tournaments, unfair and against
all known rules or ethics of chess.

Regards,
Johan
