Hi Justaknight

I have just read an email from the Closet Grandmaster requesting that it be acknowledged that his site is the original source of the interview. I do not think anyone meant anyone else any offence.

That said, if TCG had not emailed me, I would not have known what the original source of the interview was. And moreover Justaknight, please be honest, its not like your Chess Chat mates have never stolen material from this site before, and then republished it on Chess Chat - and yet on those occasions you have been silent. That is not to say anyone stole anything on this occasion, Calvin probably made a small oversight which has now been corrected.

To that end I am happy to give Amiel the credit he deserves for putting together a nice interview.

His site can be linked to from OzChess' homepage in the Australian Chess Blog section to the left hand side of your screen.
