Does anyone know whatever happened to Bobby Fischer
(the John Mc-Enroe of chess) after he lost the title by default?
Is he a writer for a respected chess periodical?
Is he loading docks somewhere?
Just nosy

Seems like as good a way to recover from burnout as any... Anybody else heard anything? By the way, the regulars in all those newsgroups mentioned above will probably not like this. Is there any easy way to restrict the discussion to net.chess only?
