Re: Fischer memorial is official
..I think that 'Bobby F's.' likely still 'earthbound-plane,' and
confused 'spirit' is more likely to show up at this tourney..
provided that his invented version of chess {"Fischer-random"}
is given the 'top-billing; including {naturally}, the bigger prize-
fund.
 
..If so, perhaps some photographic-evidence of his ghost will
appear in any pictures that are taken at this future tournament.
 
Ps. Bobby was right about a limited number of things; including
his contention that "Fischerandom" {aka-chess-960, I think!?}
represented a superior and less 'drawish' evolution of chess!!
 
Pps. Anything to get us away from those arguably 'damnable'
rote-openings, memorizations!!

Re: Fischer memorial is official
so now you've given me an idea but no, the fischer memorial should not be played with fischer random. it should be a high-class classical tournament--with good lighting...the three top young players (karjakin --pronounced --car-jackin' :P, radjabov, and carlsen), three top three (anand, kramnik, topalov), and three 'deservers' (kamsky, ivanchuck, morozevich), and one special kick-ass guest--me...no, kasparov. That would roun out the top ten. I have not made my first million but i'm on my way, and support or spread the above idea around because it seems reasonable to all parties.
 
i'm such a canadian.
