Seems interesting.... i read the book Bobby Fisher goes to War, about the 1972 Championships.. it was a great read.
It boggles my mind to think about Bobby Fisher, such greatness, such will.... its easy to pass him off as a loon, but there's something so compelling about him that it makes dismissing him and his ideas seem wrong.
Take for example the draw in chess.... I think if they'd listened to him and gotten rid of the draws from counting in 1976, chess would be better off today... draws suck! they ruin the spirit of the game
