Tremendous stuff. He really is a special human being - became world
class in chess, gave up chess, became a doctor, came back to chess and
became world class again.

But then he did become a lawyer.

Tentent, when winds are not too strong,
may stand also for "preduplex".

Prehouses are tents. Pre-doublehouses are
tentents. And pretentents are double holes in the ground.
I hope that this helps.

PS. Anybody, any questions about English?
Now you know whom to ask.

Gata is on a roll but i bet he mite be mentally tired...
Topalov has had the chance to rest and study Gata's games for any
flaws so this will be a interesting match..

I am pulling for Gata..

Will Topalov be rusty ?

Kamsky has beaten Anand and Kramnik in match play. Kamsky if he is in
form can beat Topalov.
