It seems very, very likely that these two gentlemen will be playing
the next world championship match. Kasparov should win; both logic and
politics indicate that.

It DOES look like Kasparov and Karpov.  I'd like to see Korchnoi in
there but Kasparov is the likeliest challenger.

I've heard that Kasparov's father is a Jew named Weinstein but Kasparov
took his mother's name when he started shining in the Russian chess
world.  Can anyone confirm or deny that?

Karpov has been the only world champion without Jewish blood for quite
some time, no?  I think Karpov looks like a Vulcan.

Please excuse my apparent bigotry.
