'Rubberneck' has nothing to do with comedy, nor does it follow comedic people.
In Kansas I have a chess school.
I am thinking about chess in schools in particular. In the USA more than 3200 children competed in an event.
I like 1.e4 very much, but my results are better with 1.d4.
The priority must be the unification of the world titles to straighten things out. But we should not wait that long anymore to change the situation, because we are running out of time.
My studies with Botvinnik brought me immense benefit, particularly the homework assignments which forced me to refer to chess books and to work independently.
