Bobby Fischer:

I visited Chicago several times in 1966-68. The reason for the first
of these trips was because I was writing an article for Playboy
Magazine about the Sexual Freedom League. Later, I became President of
the League. My main reason for becoming president was that otherwise
the League was going to fold before my article was published. The
article was published under the fake name of Jack Lind, because I did
not want my real name revealed. I have ever since regretted that I did
not have it published under my real name. Playboy thereafter published
a photo essay about one of my Sexual Freedom League girls. Her name
was Mara Suviks. Finally, after Playboy reduced my finder's fee for
finding Mara, I filed suit against Playboy and won. I had to go to
Chicago for the court case.

I participated in the Chicago Riots at the Democratic National
Convention in August 1968, so I went to Chicago to riot. In the course
of all these trips to Chicago, I discovered that Frank Brady, whom I
had known as the business manager of the United States Chess
Federation and who had defeated me with a Budapest Defense in the
third round of the 1960 US Open in St. Louis, was now working as an
editor for Playboy. Frank Brady invited me to stay as a guest in his
home during one or more of these visits to Chicago.

It was during these trips to Chicago that I learned that Gerhardt
Fischer was not the real father of Bobby Fischer and that there was
some deep, dark secret about Bobby's father which nobody who knew was
willing to reveal. Frank Brady was working on his biography of Bobby
Fischer and he had never been able to crack the secret of Bobby
Fischer's father.

In 1972, at the "Ball of the Century" in Reykjavik, Iceland, which was
held right after Bobby Fischer defeated Boris Spassky for the World
Chess Championship, I happened to be seated next to Joan Targ, the
sister of Bobby Fischer. She had flown in from England for the event.
I wanted to ask her who Bobby Fischer's father was, but I could not
get up the courage to ask. Joan died in 1998 so now I never will be
able to ask.

There have been a lot of strange and wild theories about who or what
Bobby Fischer's father was. For example, an article was published in
Chess Caf&#1081; recently suggesting that Bobby's father was a Soviet
spy
sent to Nazi Germany to spy on the Nazis and that Fischer was a code
name used by all the Soviet spies to identify each other.

Rather than give credence to all these theories, perhaps we should
have paid attention to what Bobby himself said about his father. In a
1962 interview, Bobby said that his father had been a physicist. Bobby
was born in Chicago on March 9, 1943. What would a physicist be doing
in Chicago in 1942 and 1943?

I guess that none of us ever thought much about that. I should have
realized the answer years ago. Now, I know the answer. The rest of you
will find out the answer early next week.

Good quote. I had forgotten about it. And it certainly shows that I
knew that Fischer's real father was an atomic scientist before this
fact was published in the Philadelphia Inquirer.

In answer to the next question, it has been established that Paul
Nemenyi did, in fact, work with the son of Albert Einstein.

You are one of a kind Sloan. You even try to put a straight lie to your
advantage. You knew Fischer's father wasn't Gerhard Fischer because "of
conversations I had with Fischer and also having met Joan briefly". That
gets contradicted by another quote, you had forgotten about: "I wanted to

ask her who Bobby Fischer's father was, but I could not get up the courage
to ask" and then you completely avoid an explanation. That's what I hate
most about you: always ignoring the basic questions.

What did Bobby tell you, that made you think Gerhard Fischer wasn't his real
father?

What you write is nonsense. Obviously, if I was going to ask Joan who
Bobby's real father was, that meant that I knew that Gerhardt Fischer
was not the real father.

This is a clear example of Sam's despicable tactics (or maybe there is
really something wrong in his brains?). The questions is how he knew
that Gerhardt Fischer was not Fischer real father. First he said it
was because of conversations he had with Bobby and Joan. Now that is
refuted he simply ignores the arguments, refuses to give details and
continues to hammer on something irrelevant.

Sam created thousands of threads like this in Usenet and I'm not going
to be victim number thousand and one. I'm out of here.
