Personal Notes

NO TAKEBACKS. I prefer slower time controls, especially against strong players. (By strong, I mean 1900 and above ICC-Standard) I think ICC ratings are inflated by about 50-100 points vis-a-vi USCF ratings.

I only play blitz when i haven't time for slow chess or only to practice openings and achieving certain positions for study.

:1998 Texas Amateur Co-Champion

If you are cordial, friendly, and gentlemanly we can talk, examine a game, and be friendly.

If you challenge me and I win the first game, I will grant you a rematch (immediately or after I drink a beer or something). It is unsportsmanlike not to grant a rematch. No rematch if no resignation of a loss position.

I am disabled and it takes me a minute to input the moves; if I screw up I don't ask for takebacks. I don't give takebacks; NO TAKEBACKS. I used to but others wouldn't reciprocate.

The deaf composer Ludwig van Beethoven and Saint Jeanell are my patron saints; the E-flat symphony is truly heroic and is the single greatest work of its kind.

Religion is a creation of flawed men; Voltaire and his contemporaries were truly enlightened. I worship the holy trinity: Hadyn, Mozart, & Beethoven.

God is spirit, not blond haired and blue eyed; if that offends you, you have personal issues to deal with.

Peace and good will to all; we are only here on this earth for a season, treat your fellow man as you would be treated. NO TAKEBACKS.
