Author Sam Sloan stirs up still even more trouble

I have just finished posting in the Wikipedia Encyclopedia biographies
of several notable chess personalities. Beatriz Marinello will be
especially happy to learn that I have posted a biography of her at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatriz_Marinello

Elizabeth Shaughnessy will be happy as well:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_Shaughnessy

Here are some more chess biographies I have just posted:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Peterson
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Brownscombe
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rusudan_Goletiani
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nino_Khurtsidze
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tatev_Abrahamyan
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Edmondson
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Goichberg
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Kalme
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Saidy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Schultz
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Seidman
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Sherwin
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Manakova
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_Life

Needless to say, I could write a biography of George John, because
George John does not exist. It is also difficult to write a biography
of a person who does not have -one.

Dear Bill Brock,

I realize that you do not use Google so you probably do not realize
this, but every time you change the title to a newsgroup posting you
cover up the old title so that viewers cannot see it.

In this case, for example, you have covered up my newsgroup title,
which is "Sam Sloan stirs up still even more trouble" with your
nonsense title, which is "Sam Sloan is planning to sue himself for
breach of contract".

It so happens that my posting contains a lot of information which I am
sure that Google viewers will want to read, but they cannot read it now
because your posting has hidden it.

Did you do that out of ignorance, stupidity or maliceousness? The world
wants to know.

Now, I am herewith making a posting about the "chess expert" title. I
have just posted an article on the Wikipedia Encyclopedia about this.
It is posted at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_expert

I suspect that my article contains inaccuracies. In particular, I wrote
that there are 400,000 players with USCF ratings of which 4,000 are
rated 2000 or better. I tried to find more accurate numbers. Ken
Sloan's website used to have better numbers but they do not seem to be
there any more, so I just made my best guess at what the numbers might
be.

Now, by making this posting I am covering up your posting which was
"Sam Sloan is planning to sue himself for breach of contract".

You may be doing this to stop people from reading my postings, but now
I am retaliating by stopping people from reading yours, at least on
Google.

I hope that you will be more courteous in the future. Please, in the
future, if you want to start a new subject header, please do it
independently instead of writing on top of mine.

Sam Sloan
who is very angry. Perhaps I need to take another thousand dollars from
you.
