          Hi Hans,

          It's been very busy but I always enjoy the hospitality here. Starting Sunday (the 20th) at 1 pm Eastern I will be joining GM's Seirawan, Ramirez, and Ashley to do a 2 hour Candidates show. The show will run daily until the tournament finishes. Think of it as an all encompassing wrap up show a la ESPN .http://www.uschesschamps.com/

          We will also be taking viewer calls at some point. I invite everyone to join; I must admit I am pretty nervous..

            You look good. Mature and circumspect. You are a good foil for Maurice and that is not easy and your personality shines through. I also think you controlled your nerves fairly well and made many good points. There was some nervousness in physical positioning by the analysis board but first time in a big way - I think you'll solve that next time. Overall very well done! Congratulations.

                Next broadcast starts at 1pm EST (or 1pm Toronto time for those confused). They usually go two hours. Ive really enjoyed the commentary by the team. GM Eric Hansen continues to look and sound good and is still making good points although the debates are getting more vigorous.

                        Im really enjoying the show. Even the intermissions are interesting and entertaining with: Beyond the Board. What a brilliant idea! Grandmasters sharing stories and opinions about the chess world.

                            Maurice is obviously in awesome shape for a 50 yr old. Love how competitive he still is!
