< Larry Evans states that a Dutch reader sent him the nub of what Botvinnik said about Stalin without citing a source around the end of 1996. This directly contradicts Taylor Kingston's allegation that GM Evans learned about it from Tim Krabbe's website much later.> Larry Parr
From playwright Richard Laurie
I believe I said something in my final letter to Kingston that he was claiming godlike omniscience when stating the earliest Larry Evans possibly could have known about what Botvinnik said about Stalin was when it appeared on Tim Krabbe's website. I pointed out that GM Evans had far greater contacts than he had. It's also interesting that the original argument was about Soviet cheating and Taylor Kingston was decidedly wrong about that the first time around.
