I don't kmow if I spelled his name correctly, but does anyone think Anand doesn't get to much publicitiy?
anyways, is Anand #1 or 2 FIDE these days? I suppose that if he lacks international publicity, it's probably because he's past his glory days.

And doesn't get enough publicity? Go to google news, he probably has more stories than any other active chessplayer. 🙂 Of course, that's due mainly to the Indian press, as he's very popular in his home country...but since they service about 1/6 of the world's population, that's a lot of fans.
