Default Sam Sloan's Delicate Sense of Timing

I will try this again. What I am trying to do is separate all these
different discussions.

Now, what is my "Delicate Sense of Timing".

I put in an extra blank space into the title between of and Timing.

BEST GUESS

Sam,

My best guess is your mistaken notion that Bobby Fischer was unaware
of the attack on the Twin Towers when he spewed his hatred in those
radio interviews.

Basically, yes. Sloan has tried to find excuses for Fischer's hate-
speech by claiming Fischer was talking about something other than the
9/11 attacks, or that he spoke before the towers collapsed, or before
it was known that the crashes were part of a coordinated, deliberate
attack.
Even were all this true, it would hardly excuse Fischer's ghastly
comments, but the plain fact is that Sam is wrong on all counts.
Fischer was talking about the 9/11 atrocity, he knew it was a
deliberate attack involving hijacked airliners, and he knew that the
World Trade Center towers had been destroyed, by the time he called
Radio Bombo.

Sam, just go back and read my post that gives exact times of the
9/11 events compared to the time of Fischer's radio interview. It's
very straightforward. It also has a link to a transcript of the
interview.

R.I.P.

Bobby is dead. He lived a very disturbed life.

He was brilliant at chess. That is enough. Let
him rest in peace. -- Rev. J.D. Walker

I doubt that Larry Evans will mind my mentioning
his initial reaction to Bobby's death. He put it in almost
these words, "A great man with tragic flaws has left
the world. I miss him."

The point is that in his radio interviews, Bobby
attacked GM Evans as a low dog and scum, plus other
epithets. Larry was probably hurt and certainly surprised
since he had always helped Bobby and been a proper friend.

Yet he was sad at Bobby's loss. I suspect he was
exhibiting some of the human concern that Phil Innes
tried to explain and Rev. Walker attempted to define.

Yours, Larry Parr
