Nice stuff, thanks.

Only know, just a good day later, i start realizing what Bobby Fischer has meant in my life. To keep it short and not too emotional, the beauty of the game of chess helped me through difficult years of youth, and at mature age remained my other love, only second to my girlfriend.

I will miss the man.

Cheers,

Kaj

I'm a huge fan of Fischer Random Chess (FRC or chess960), and the man invented it.

He did not invent it, he helped to popularize it

Why's it named after him?
