Re: How about a book review section?

Hi Justin.
I was thinking of a brand new bunch of contributors with a new author.
('bunch'.....awful....the collective term for chess players is 'set'.)
I was thinking of a brand new set of contributors with a new author.
I like the link. I bet the Streatham & Brixton boys did not get any Christmas Cards from RDK.
(If you did get a card from RDK you would be thinking.....Now where did he cut and paste his Christmas message from?)
Actually I like Ray Keene. (infact there is no chess player/writer that I don't like.)
Personally he has never done me any harm, he crossed the line in the Tee-Shirt affair
when all he need have done was write a few lines saying he had been mis-led (we all were for a while.)
but he stayed in character and simply shrugged his shoulders.
We need villians in chess, it keeps the game ticking along.
I cannot for the life of me think why he keeps lifting word for word other writers notes
without giving the original source any credit.
He has the skill to re-write any note and make it his own.
Maybe he is doing it because he does not like us.
Maybe he is challenging us to find the source of his next article.
It's a game. Hunt the Thimble.....Find the Original.
With any doubt it does ensure people read (or read for the 2nd time) his column.
Maybe he does not know he is doing it. Have you thought about that?
He may have the medical condition, plaigiaritus, the need to copy other writers notes.
Actually he is doing us a service, I missed the original article, Ray is printing it word
for word to make sure we all catch up.
And I'm sorry but I cannot help but also shrug my shoulders about all of this and say 'Big Deal...So What?"
I would not give a rats behind if he lifted anything I wrote and he got paid for it.
I'll get a joke or two out of it and watching the evidence pile up against him on a daily basis is quite funny.
But at the end of the day who really cares?

I've heard nothing but praise about 'Arkell's Odyessey' from the punters.
('the punters'....awful....the collective term for chess book buyers is 'a grumble of chess book buyers'.)

so I'll pick up a copy next time I'm at a bookstall.
(is it not full of Caro Kanns and Rook Endings?....grumble grumble....grumble grumble...)
