Jan is a great player and wonderful person. His writing and analysis of chess games are first rate. I met him in Dieren at a tournament and he is very interesting.
I would prefere to remember that shiny eyed brooklyn boy who blasted away the soviet chess machine and weep with him at the many injustices that he had to endure during his lifetime.

Timman is a great player in his own right, one of the top 25 or so of all time, and his reaction to Fischer's death is fascinating and sympathetic.

Robert James Fischer, you will not be forgotten.
