You're welcome. I heard Tobey Maguire is going to play Fischer. I hope they get the chess right... it's so infuriatingly mistreated in most films, but for this one it HAS to be right. Hopefully they'll enlist Silman's help--he does that sort of thing for movies and TV shows.
Thanks for the heads-up, Alan!
