Dear Sir Maybe you could print a small card that people could hand out to other players encouraging them to come along and play. Maybe a section on the site could be put aside for funny stories related to chess and chess themes. Maybe the importance of creativity and imagination and health benefits could be highlighted on the site. Maybe even a few poems about the game could be uploaded. Could a simultaneous display be arranged to show case the skill involved in playing the game? (Maybe even a blindfold exhibition?) A discussion could be had to as to the problems involved in playing too much chess. Maybe even you could upload the Morals of Chess by Benjamin Franklin. Take care stay well and thank you for setting up this site and all the other good works that you do.

At the Sousse Interzonal in 1967, the Yugoslav grandmaster Matulovic took a move back in game against Istvan Bilek after saying ""j'adoube" ( I adjust!). Bilek was shocked with the courage of Milan Matulovic, and even though many observers witnessed the incident, the arbiter didn't see the takeback and allowed Matulovic to proceed the game. This earned him the nickname "J'adoubovic".
