Post a Comment

I have allowed public comments again, but I must approve a comment before it appears. My decision is final. Here are a few requirements:

1. Keep your comments on chess.
2. Please make constructive remarks, both if you agree or disagree.
3. Avoid insults, name-calling, accusations, profanity and adult language.

I would prefer that you sign your name, but this is not a requirement. That said, I am more likely to reject a negative comment from an anonymous poster.
