A journalist's review

Here's a link to an article on this year's Forum 2000. I happened to attend every panel the journalist was at (and think I shared an after lunch beer with her as well - provided by the Forum) and met and/or listened to every individual she interviewed or photographed... and if I didn't mention it before, I have a new found respect for chess players - Gary Kasparov rocks!! He's incredibly intelligent, personable, in touch with his emotions (moved to tears at one point during the day), and really funny! I always thought a chess grandmaster would be really dry and analytical, like an accountant or an engineer, or something.
