I saw Kasparov interviewed on Charlie Rose's show last week. Interesting guy. ....and utterly committed to a free Russia.

Anyone know of a good free chess program to download? One where you play against the computer and not another person?

Garry Kasparov, the world's former No. 1 chess player who quit the professional game last month to focus on politics, said Saturday he had been hit over the head with a chessboard in a politically motivated attack.

I wonder why he gave up the game. He is only 41 years old. Is he really rich now and tired of it? Does he think that his chess brain will do any good in the world political chess game? Maybe he believed that he was losing his ability to be the best chess player in the world.
Picking out this ONE Russian president to seek change isn't going to do much good. The Russian system goes far deeper than one Vladimir Putin.

Good thing the guy wasn't the champion bowler.

Two minutes in the penalty box for high sticking... er um... high boarding.
