Please quit teasing us with stuff only 30 years old. I want to know
how USCF management was literally in bed with Adolph and Eva. NSFW
pictorial evidence preferred. Thanks.

Reading any of these supplied links reminds me of Laff@me's diatribes on
the Chess Federation. - Well ok, *almost*

Well, within the past month or so, one of GM Polgar's more vocal
supporters when confronted with Federal charges relating to the making
of threats to kill and maim children attending Massachusetts scholastic
chess tournaments as a convoluted means of attacking me and others who
opposed Ms. Polgar's involvment in the USCF (chess), wound up in an ER
where he attempted to set himself on fire. The gentleman then spent time
in a mental facility (probably under evaluation/examination) followed by
23 days in state cutsody in jail on a felony charge. The threats at the
basis of the looming Federal charges result from threats made on
rec.games.chess.politics and chessdiscussion.com, a web site owned and
controlled by GM Polgar and her husband, Paul Truong.

One of the lessons is that there are diatribes and then there are diatribes.
Carry on.

You're obviously in your rightful element over there with the other
obsessed looney tunes. I'm ever so glad you found a safe haven in
RBR. No one here thinks you're worth the trouble.

But worth the trouble for you to post a reply. You're such an infant,

The word you're looking for is "obsession", not diatribes.

I hope the agencies concerned get their efforts together and put the
crazy man away for a good, long time. Sounds like he might have been
able to skate lightly on the "felony" charges in part because the rest
of his legal history was not allowed into trial (?). Too bad, that
kind of stuff is acted on too often in our modern crazy world.

Self - immolation all over a game of chess ?

That guy took king's knight to king's bishop four a little too
serious.
