Texas Justice ?? It is known and the sisters have confessed that Papa Polgar used to beat them to force them to play chess and study chess and it was living Hell to live in that home where they were not allowed to go out and associate and play with other kids their ages. Of course, this is what made them into great chess players. Otherwise, they would be working as office secretaries somewhere today. And now, Susan Polgar is applying to her children the same techniques that were applied to her, forcing her kids to play chess. Problem is that her kids are boys who are often not as compliant as girls and the youngest one does not like chess and has complained to the authorities. What Larry Parr is missing is the big Texas case going on right now where 416 children were taken from their parents and put into foster care solely and entirely because their families were living in or associated with a polygamous life style: http://www.sltrib.com/ci_8989851 These 416 are in most cases refugees who escaped when a similar compound was raided along the Arizona Utah border. It is a funny coincidence that after being faced with child abuse charges in New York, the Polgars moved to Texas too !!! In the vast majority of countries and societies of the world polygamy was practiced and in most cases still is. Here in the US it is not allowed. Here, we only have girlfriends. I have been doing research on my family history and I have found three instances of my ancestors who had an unusually large number of children. All of them lived in the 1700s. None of them were related to each other. None of them were involved in any funny religions. They were all straight-line Methodists or Presbyterians. Some were preachers. One of these was Andrew Graham who arrived in America in 1772. He was married four times. Three of his wives were named Margaret. It is not known when he married or divorced them, or when they died. He has more than 7,000 descendants alive today, which may explain why there are so many people nowadays named Graham. I have a book out about this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0923891072 My research tends to show that most men had no children at all and a few men had very large numbers of children, some men producing more than 20 children. My question is: Would the human race have survived at all and would any of us be alive today had it not been for those few men who produced large numbers of children? The other question is: Some would say that Polgar is guilty of beating his kids to force them to play chess. Suppose he beat the kids to force them to learn their math tables or to do their homework or to practice the piano. Would he still be considered guilty? Sam Sloan

PAUL TRUONG ANSWERS SAM SLOAN IN ANOTHER FORUM No word can possibly describe you. What I find even more sickening is there are actually a few derange people who pay attention to your garbage. There is absolutely no truth to this nonsense. During a child custody battle, the side which was ruled against made some wild charges hoping to have some past court decisions relating to the case reversed. There is not even an ounce of truth to the allegations. A family court judge made a temporary order while waiting for an investigation to be done and the order was promptly lifted once the facts came out. A thorough investigation was done by child protective services and they concluded that there was absolutely no truth to the allegations. In fact, the children clearly stated numerous times to the law guardian and the representatives from child protective services that they were told to say this and they would get lots of toys if they do. They were around 6 and 7 years old at that time. Even the children=92s teacher testified in court that there was absolutely no truth to this because the children told her what actually happened. Not a single person collaborated with the person who made these false charges. ALL CHARGES WERE DROPPED. In fact, the same person who made these bogus charges agreed to drop the charges. But what do you care about the truth, right? In spite of being smeared by this individual repeatedly, Susan has displayed class and dignity by refusing to say anything negative about this individual publicly for the sake of her children. You are a despicable human being for involving innocent children in your personal and twisted agenda. After knowing the truth, you still continue to spread your lies. Why don't you do something useful like go get a job to properly support your family? What's worse is the entire board majority was told of the facts and they still continue to allow this kind of deliberate lies to continue to circulate for their own agenda while the USCF is $200,000 in the hole in this fiscal year. This is Susan Polgar's response on another forum: "I am quite appalled by the disgusting tactic displayed by some posters here. Do you have no shame? How low are you willing to stoop? My children are currently living happily with my husband and I in Texas. They are excellent students and they make the honor roll each semester since they have been here. If the charges are true, do you honestly think that a judge would allow my relocation with my family to Texas to happen? CPS did a thorough investigation of these completely fabricated charges. They interviewed my children numerous times. They also interviewed their school teachers, school nurse, doctors, and school principal, etc. Do you think that CPS would not step in to prevent this if the charges are true? All the bogus charges were dropped. And people wonder why so many good people walked away and giving up on the USCF." In a message dated 4/22/2008 8:24:03 A.M.

: BETTERING BOT We wrote, as quoted by Greg Kennedy: "I was right to condemn a few days back the ready habit to employ a U.S. court action to condemn automatically parents for what they may or may not be doing. In this instance, Sam probably unwittingly adopted the same tactic that several people on this and other forums employed against him when he 'kidnapped' his daughter." That adds up to: TWO WRONGS ARE TWO WRONGS. Responds our Greg, "The old two-wrongs-make-a-right fallacy. If Mr. Sloan was [sic] wrong, let's just own up to it." (Greg needs to learn the subjunctive.) Our claim was the precise opposite of Greg's mendacious assertion, though it's possible he could not think his way through the disputation and wasn't lying. In our exchanges with Taylor Kingston, we have been citing several historical works. The purpose was less to inform Kingston than to provide the beginnings of a reading list for Greg Kennedy. Thus far, of the many book titles that we adduced, the work that he might turn to is Vera Brittain's "Testament of Youth" for a beginning of his education about the 20th century. A while back we mentioned Max Beerbohm's "Zuleika Dobson" an elegantly penned novel that appeared in 1911, the same year as the Britannica's famous 11th edition. Our first assignment to Greg, if he were of a mind to improve himself, would be to compare and contrast the civilizational assumptions to be found in Brittain's memoir and Beerbohm's novel -- thence to read the entry on civilization and progress in the Britannica's 11th edition. That would constitute a beginning for understanding the intellectual consequences of World War I -- consequencs that would work themselves out in politics and concrete human suffering over the next seven or so decades. Someone suggested that we begin first with Barbara Tuchman's "Proud Tower" before assigning primary source material to Greg. We respectfully disagree. Give him an initial dip in primary materials, and he will be better equipped to handle Tuchman's synthesizing history. Whereupon, we immerse the man once again in primary sources. Agreed?

LEAVE THE KIDS OUT OF IT! Dear Phil Innes, If Paul Truong's statement is accurate -- and I think the chances are high that it is -- then I was right to condemn a few days back the ready habit to employ a U.S. court action to condemn automatically parents for what they may or may not be doing. In this instance, Sam probably unwittingly adopted the same tactic that several people on this and other forums employed against him when he "kidnapped" his daughter. My point earlier was that it was morally dangerous to pry through the written word into the lives of families without a full knowledge of circumstances and hard facts. I noted that EVEN IF the Tabasco charge were true and acted upon by an American court, there was likely far more to the story. In this instance, it appears that the basic charge, regardless of familial circumstances, was untrue. That Mr. Truong waited until he had his ducks properly lined up to respond suggests both a strong human spirit on his and Susan Polgar's part and a surprising degree of professionalism. I am not at all sure that I could have kept my cool and my keyboard quiet until the correct moment, had I been in his position.

Dear Larry Parr, There are those who do not chose to 'notice' its accuracy, yet have received direct information which attests to its detail. To then proceed /as if/ such material is unknown, and indeed as if the issue is unresolved, is more than a bone of contention, that is a form of wilfull distortion for the purpose of recreating a 'political thriller', and nevermind the casual victims. To think any of my recent correspondents here by virtue of their own writing know of or even care for the well-being of children, is not to gild the lily, but to coat the rhubarb leaf with another substance! That is the issue against public decency in reporting I mentioned. > In this instance, Sam probably unwittingly > adopted the same tactic that several people on this > and other forums employed against him when he > "kidnapped" his daughter. We do know that morals stem from 'mores', or custom, and there is no necessary good or bad in any custom, but what is customary has no bearing on what is adjudged fit, which instead we call 'ethics'. As such, there is not even any thought attending on 'morals', and instead we witness habit. Sometimes such habit is a settled one of morose and misanthropic nature, but even though it is literally thoughtless it still exists within the checks and balances of useful inhibition - a strong taboo against the involvement of innocents shames the conscience, no? At least, that was always the state of Western culture during the age when children were seperated from the realm of adults, which is precisely the literary age when we chose to educate them. That age is now so diminished we might say it no longer exists, and there is no shield or membrane separating adults and children in the tv-age, where anyone of any age is spared no illusion to what are often tawdry adult concerns. > My point earlier was that it was morally > dangerous to pry through the written word into the > lives of families without a full knowledge of > circumstances and hard facts. I noted that EVEN IF > the Tabasco charge were true and acted upon by an > American court, there was likely far more to the story. > > In this instance, it appears that the basic > charge, regardless of familial circumstances, was > untrue. That Mr. Truong waited until he had his ducks > properly lined up to respond suggests both a strong > human spirit on his and Susan Polgar's part and a > surprising degree of professionalism. Yes. Some of 'us' who have bothered to note the character of the players in the on-going drama, have bothered to inform our intelligence with the result of that 'looking'. If it is your point that this is simply responsible adult behavior, I agree with you. > I am not at all sure that I could have kept my cool > and my keyboard quiet until the correct moment, had I > been in his position. Quite so. The dilemma being further exposure of one's family or, as it appears took place, a noble silence. --- Dr. Neil Postman in 1975 wrote a devastating and very thorough book titled 'The End of Childhood', a title of some 750 words, tracing what constituted childhood, its origins, worth, and evolution from approximately Elizabethan times in Europe. He also reported on its decay and destruction; sometimes from a casual indifference in the modern pysche to any sort of culture at all, or to anything but egoic behaviors; and he also reported on the deliberated obfustication of what society had evolved for some 500 years as a means to allow children to individuate themselves before entering the adult world. That latter point, says Postman, is not intended to be for the child's benefit, but is a low attempt at exploitation, for usually fiduciary of venal purposes. That is the not the issue here. But that is the context of the culture in which the issue exists. I hope that other readers in these newsgroups will attend on your comments; so that they will see an /indicated/ need for reserving comment before launching yet another spate of enthusiasticly blind 'investigations.' That is, if they actually care for anything in the above, and if they wish to be considered as adults human beings by their peers.

In fact, the same person who made these bogus charges agreed to drop the charges. But what do you care about the truth, right? --- Dear Larry Parr, You may have noted my challenges here recently to specific persons on these issues; those who proposed charges but knowingly repressed the knowledge of their results. Or was their intention to investigate actually as they proposed it of themselves, and they cared not to look further other than to amplify accusation while repressing the result of it? It is merely disgusting that anyone could call themselves 'journalist' after that, or respecters of any rule of law which is a minimum standard, never mind that higher level which is common decency! And disgust is what we have become accustomed upon. And this is merely the /public/ level of exchange of those who would declare their orientation in a proxy war. Like you, I opt for full disclosure of the whole issue, but unlike you - and here we have a difference, a large one - I cannot like what Sam Sloan does in his investigative mode, since I cannot distinguish that from a McCarthyist adventurism into chess politics. Younger people will not know what that is, but we do, and we know what it did. What it does now for USCF it then did to the country, it divided and made it doubt itself for a decade, and the cold war was all the colder for that. These excursions are some desperate remedy, [really! off any scale] and are themselves worse than the addressed complaint, bad as those are - though it is a permitted measure by those who pull the strings, and /timor addidit alas/ employs Puppet Sloan to /divertisments/ to switch languages, but back again, which have the effect of /suppressio veri/. And that is what complainant Sloan does not understand, that he is the stalking horse for a habit of control he does not even acknowledge but which works him; and after some year long engagement, neither do I feel he wishes to understand, the moment being of greater force, though acting this way is destructive of whatever he thinks he loves and would sustain about chess. And this is merely of the complainant's psycho-pathology! And that does not deserve reprobation as much as much needed understanding both psychologically and externally, of what a political puppet must inevitably become - and the usual fate of the stalking horse. The crime here is not perpetrated by the evident agent, who I suggest is grandiloquently insensible to his manipulation, but the result of it is an indifference to chess in preference to an attendant fame he thinks is his bequest and project will be his just reward. The real criminal minds are not yet described or revealed in this scene. Cordially, Phil Innes

I see it now. It is at: http://www.chessdiscussion.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1069&start=60 I can tell you from experience that it could not possibly have happened the way Truong describes. I have this nutcase named Dorchen Leidholdt who had been making all kinds of allegations against me for the past 17 years. http://www.anusha.com/dorchen-for-web.jpg Although she had managed to get me arrested about five times (I have lost count) she has never been able to get a thorough investigation like the one described above by Truong launched. The courts and the Child Protective Services must have had some evidence much stronger than a mere allegation from the opponent in a child custody suit to issue orders of protection and to do what they did.
