Gregory Alexander said "I assure you, from this moment forward; I will
never do business with you. Don't call me, don't write personal
letters to me again Hal. Our friendship is terminated."

Smith said: "I wouldn't recommend anyone do business with him. If this
is how he handles confidential information, just imagine what Chess
Magnet School might do with your personal information."

These people said never to do business with chessmagnetschool.com.
They don't trust Hal Bogner. Why not? Is he as bad as they said?

It's the bit in the middle of a lever, aka the fulcrum. Ray is
actually thousands of years old and it's quite a privilege for us to
be able to discuss chess with the inventor of one of the fundamental
machines. I wonder if we can find the guys who invented the wheel and
the screw?
