Default Re: Chess World Championship

This is just awesome...it has everything, the permanently 9 year-old chess prodigies, surveillance by the KGB, corrupt officials, $500k tax-free each, and because it's all about bathrooms, that touch of the scatological to excite the popular imagination.

Whether they like it or not, this match is going to fit perfectly into the lineage of previous world championship matches.
