    Kasparov and Short world championship system is destroyed. Just like the heroes ofKhalyfmn. Kramnik. And was Aronian. With the inflated and unrealistic ratings

    I think India is 13 1/2 hours ahead of PST, so 7am PST would be 8.30pm IST.

      TonyH: Thanks for the correction. I actually didn't notice it right away and was wondering where the heck I screwed up. I just now noticed. I haven't slept in 2 days and I guess that was the reason.  Thanks again for the heads up

    If 6AM EST is correct, that's 8PM AEST and I'm stoked. But 2PM BST is like 11PM AEST, so something is wrong here. Maybe its me.
