WHAT WILL HAPPEN?

Dear Mike,
Right, I don't think for a moment that you are
part of a lynch mob. As you know, I favor full debate
on the USCF Forum on this and all other issues -- full
debate and, yes, nasty, vituperative, vicious debate as well.
Unlike some here, I just happen to think that
Paul Truong may have a pretty good defense if all aspects
of the case, including the actual content of the
messages and their style, are taken into account.
My prediction is that he will survive this storm
because there will be no transparency in the
evaluation process. The Board majority will either
set about to whitewash PT and do it clumsily; or the
Board majority will decide to knife him in the
political back and do it clumsily.
The clumsiness in either eventuality will be
what saves Paul Truong.
Now here's another prediction that I admit is an
unlikely outcome, but somehow one thinks the potential
is there for the following bit of humor: the whole
Truong affair will be handled so dishonestly by the
Executive Board that other Board members may end up
being forced to resign, whereas PT and Susan Polgar
will survive and thrive.
By the way, don't underestimate the danger posed
by discovery in the Sloan lawsuit. The laddies won't
be able to keep their stories straight, and Sam could
prove to be quite a cat among the canaries when they
start singing. And once again, the danger is not
necessarily the greatest for PT and Susan Polgar,
though that is the common assumption. There were
elements in Randy Bauer's attempt at spin that have
been noticed as suggestively untrue.
Isn't this forum wonderful? Goshdarnit, I love it!

It is true, Larry, that until somebody files a lawsuit in ILLNOIS,
Troung might escape, gulity or innocent.
If it were not for r.c.p.g, then I think that the world would be a
much more dangerous place. People are people, these "tricks" have been
occuring on and off for over 100 years in Chess poltiics.
In America, it is time to find the gulity, and there is a gulity man
or WOMAN.
At this point, Troung is really our O.J. Simpson. We have a histroy of
allowing the political elite to scape justice. Something tells me that
the US Attorney will not be afraid of Executive Board
member Troung and the impact that a prosecution would have on their
chess rating.
Two events can change our world.
1. A lawsuit in Chicago. IL
2. A Federal investigation

Far more interesting if you present it in toto, with its full
auditory and visual dimensions as well as the lyrical:

That information is as follows:
BEGIN REPORT
"If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man, you win some, lose
some, all the same to me. The pleasure is to play, makes no difference
what you say, I don't share your greed, the only card I need is the
Ace of spades. Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil, going
with the flow, it's all the same to me, seven or Eleven, snake eyes
watching you, double up or quit, double stake or split, the Ace of
spades. You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools, but
that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live for ever. And
don't forget the joker! Pushing up the ante, I know you wanna see me,
read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again, I see it in your eyes,
take one look and die, the only thing you see, you know it's gonna be,
the Ace of spades!"
END REPORT
It's a very interesting document!

Sorry. I forgot to turn off my example phony persona for Rob
Mitchell. Again, my apologies. (Mike Murray)
