  What? Short wanted Spassky to be his second because Spassky is lazy?? ;-)

  Indeed, I too believe that if Spassky was motivated he could be rated among the
  top 10 or so GMs again. He's still in the top 1/4 of GMs, and he's lazy and
  unmotivated! But although he doesn't win as much as he used to, he's still
  regarded as a tough GM for anybody to have to beat. Now he's motivated a lot
  by the 2 million + $$ he'll receive by beating Fischer rather than losing. So,
  Spassky is playing better than I imagine almost anyone in the world could do
  versus Fischer these days. I know I'm certainly rooting for him!!

I don't think you should even bother looking at game 6.  Fischer's
playing like a fish.  Why is he playing the QGA anyway?  Why doesn't he
play the King's Indian or anything more aggressive and interesting?? 
Maybe even  1 d4 Nf6  2 c4 c5!! (Forced win for black, right, benoni? 
:-))?  Anyway, my point is that in the past few games Fischer's play has
been extremely disappointing.  It's no fun watching somebody(namely
Spassky)  beat up on a hapless, weak putz (i.e. Fischer).

If I remember correctly, Fischer played in the Havana International from the
Marshall Chess Club, rather than from "an apartment", as reported by Mr. Fry.
I may be in error, but I think the moves were transmitted by telephone, rather
than by telex.

Probably  this has been mentioned hereabouts, but GEnie offers a service
under its BASIC*SERVICES ($4.95/month, if you are in a town that has a local
GEnie number) called BASIC*CHESS.  This allows you with a TTY or graphic
interface to play chess against a remote opponent.  Another level is offered
for $6/hour that allows conversation during the game.  the BASIC* version
allows limited conversation via a fixed set of phrases that are translated
by the host computer (for example if you type P1, your recipient sees
"play one game?".

There's a rumor circulating on Prodigy that Karpov is in Yugoslavia

announce a match between them after this match is over and the formation
of a new chess federation, intended to replace FIDE. I don't know

We knew it couldn't last.  Fischer had one of his legendary explosions
before today's game 3.  He has been mad that the reporters covering
the match are not referring to it as the World Championship, and
referring to him as the Wold Champion.  He demanded that the reporters
who did  not do so be banned from covering the match.  In punishment
for past violations, he demanded that all reporters be removed from the
hall for today's game, and that the video cameras at the press center
be turned off. Only the result would be made available
after the game.

The match organizer, Jedzimir Vasiljevic, begged reporters to call him
the champion, and tried to negotiate an agreement.  He suggested that
Fischer would be satisfied if they called him the "so-called World
Champion."  He noted that the New York Times had included a large
photograph of Fischer and Spassky that included a banner declaring
that this was the Championship, and in payment they could enter the
hall, although the NYT reporter had already left the site before
Fischer's eruption.

The AP reports that Vasiljevic was clearly frazzled by trying
to satisfy Fischer's latest demands. 

Eventually, though, Fischer was persuaded to relent after spectator's
chairs were pushed back several more yards and a new sign was placed
behind the two combatants saying "World Chess Championship" three
times, in addition to the one already on the table they're sitting at.
Photos were allowed only before the match, not the first three minutes
of the game as before.  And the cameras at the press center were not
turned off.   Fischer seemed relaxed, reportedly, as he sat down for
the game, chatting with Spassky before the start.

And for those that actually care about the chess involved here, :-)
the first four moves are 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6.
A Return to the Ruy.

The most recent address I have for the Shogi Association is:

The Shogi Association Ltd.
PO Box 77
Bromley
Kent
UK.

It is at least 8 years since I used the address so maybe it's out of date?
They used to publish a leaflet in both English and German (from memory) giving
a brief description of the rules - maybe they still do. The Shogi Association
also supplied shogi sets for 'standard' shogi, and other forms eg: Tori Shogi.

29. Rh7 ( or 28. Rh7 ) instead of 29. Kh2 ? looks very promising.
In a short analysis we ( two >2300 players and me ) did not find any 
compensation for Black. White should win easily with his two
extra pawns.

You should feel free to offer a draw whenever you want.  The two of you

The draw offer should be made before you punch the clock, and that is
the only rule I know of.  You should not have said anything else.  The
prize situation is not pertinent, and your opponent can legitimately
complain that you are posing a distraction.  If your opponent has left
the board, I (as an occasional tournament director) see nothing wrong
with approaching him/her and making the offer as soon as possible after
the clock has been punched.  If your opponent returns to the board and
begins to analyze before you find an opportunity to make the offer, say
nothing;  see the TD, explain that your opponent left the board, and the
TD may communicate the draw offer on your behalf.

Okay, so we've got 1 piece (the N on d7) being tied down.

Ah, now I see - your assumption is that black's pieces are tangled or
on the wrong squares and need to be moved. It seems to me, though,
that they are very well placed to support the ...c4 break, which
is all the stronger after 21.a3 (a move for which I still cannot see
any purpose unless it is to "tempt" black into chopping the exchange;
I might have thought that you were trying to prevent ...b4 locking out
the B, but you have already indicated that's not the case).

But ...Rb8 and ...Bc8 are quite poor moves! Why not 23...Rac8 24.h5 c4
and if 25.Qd4, bc 26.Bb3 Nc4 27.Bc3 Nde5, with an excellent game and
the exchange to boot?

It looks like this got garbled a bit (21...Ba1 and 22...Ba1), so I'm
not sure what you were thinking here.  I will hazard a guess that it
was something like 21.Qd2 Ba1 22.Ra1 Kh7 23.h4 b4!? 24.a3, but now
black might play 24...Qf6 25.Ra2 ba 26.Bc3 Ne5 which looks pretty good
- neither 27.Ne5 de 28.h5 c4 (28...Rg8!?) nor 27.h5!?  Nf3 [27...Qf3?
28.Be5] 28.gf Qf3 seem to give white real compensation.

Indeed - that is why I'm especially curious to see what Fischer does
next with White!
