Thank you for your invitation. I am inventor (ex president of Icelandic inventors) , teacher and Economist. My speciality is to see possibilities and problem solving. I see compleatly diffrent marketing of your webside, to the benefit of the owners. I was mainly playing in correspondance chess in the Icelandic team, and later for fun only.
