This is all well and good; the letter is an open invitation to review many aspects of chess organisation, and not a diktat - not presuming itself to be a prescription - but an invitation to which any player or organiser could contribute. There has been little response in these [rgcp] threads which tend to concentrate on USCF matters [rgcp] however www.chesscafe.com has a lively bulletin board on the subject with contributions from all over Europe. Some weeks ago in these threads I anticipated the discussion, but not to anyone's satisfaction :) and it continues to interest me why American chess should see itself as something apart from the world scene, which it is so evidently not; it is interdependent with the global chess scene. Cordially, Phil Innes
