It looks like he used a usenet post of yours from one of the threads I was ignoring that started out "Using computers is illegle on the Internet Chess Club. If they were allowed, then everyones rating would be roughly the same because most computers are fixed in skill." (and something about how you like King's gambit against people). So your stuff was in the question part, and in the answer part he says that this was something you had posted on the "net" and he acknowlages who you are and what you do (& babbles for a bit) & finishes up saying that OTB is the only real test of skill. There's a few familier usenet names in that column (nov) so I guess Larry got a computer and learned how to use the dreaded usenet groups. His name isn't one of the people in the misc group and I probably couldn't match his writting stye with anybody's over there. Pete
