12.08.2005 - You´ve read the title, and you´re wondering what it is all about? For our English readers, here are a some quotes from the article in the German section, written by Chess Classic press officer Hartmut Metz. “Chess is better than sex”, Prof. Eckhard Freise joked, because there are more positions!” That was a good one! What about this one: “I am the best friend of the grandmasters”, Hans-Walter Schmitt said, “they can sit on their lazy butt in between games, because they don´t have to prepare openings in Chess960”. And another fine quote by the ever-active organiser: “I like to compare Chess960 with the Internet. In the mid-nineties it was unstoppable. So is Chess960”.
