I don't understand,

British irony, Vass. IM Cox is now laughing until his belly hurts because you took him seriously.

Grin 
I appreciate it, really.. A good catch!

The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged.

If I were in charge the problem wouldn't arise, since Topalov would still have two years of his ten-year ban to run.

I'm surprised Kramnik is so apparently friendly with Gijssen given the latter's performance in Elista. It would be interesting to know his true thoughts about GG.

I don't understand, what kind of a hypothetical ban do you mean?  Shocked
Wouldn't it be too harsh? 10 years!!! For what?!

Click on the name of the photographer and you notice it is clearly photoshopped. Very nice prank but I would also prefer it is not a prank.
