    The post that was quoted here has been removed
    After you attacked the original poster's character for no justifiable reason.

    As for being "silent" on the other thread...you accused me of sexism (hmm, I see a patern developing here) and then were proven wrong, when shown the original post (that you were unaware of) by me that had nothing to do with women. Why would I then continue to argue with you?

    All you have to do is apologize to the original poster...your attack was unwarranted, and you need to do the mature thing, and just admit your wrong.

    Expect Duchess to later attack you as having "fallen silent".

    I'm out of this thread too.

    I know I should not jump to conclusions when I _am_ ignorant of the evidence. I will not refrain from jumping to conclusions just because I _seem_ ignorant of the evidence to someone, especially when I am ignorant of seeming ignorant.

    I have seen the thread, and I don't understand why you're bringing up the issue of his disingenuousness in a reply to my post even though I didn't do it myself.

    I just think the expression "nearly illiterate" doesn't describe him well at all. I have communicated in writing with much less literate people, and I often did it without frustration. And I do find the expression extremely rude.

    If we can get them all playing chess, then they aint dropping bombs.

    The fact is once every few years chess takes some children out
    of circumstances and conditions we cannot imagine.
    For that reason I am proud of chess.

    Who gives a toss if ...[text shortened]... stop them playing in an Olympiad......Never.

    These players more than any others belong there.
    Do you support the opinion that chess also should become an olympic discipline? I certainly do. But then I also think that we should apply minimum standards to the candidate participants, just like in other olympic sports. Doing this in the chess olympiads would be a good starting point.

    And yes, there can be justifiable exceptions, but that does not make the OP's opinion less valid for me.

    edit. I forgot who posted it, but comparing woman's chess to paralympics won't do much to support woman's chess
