About Me:
In a nutshell: I had restarted chess after a long time lapse. I last played chess in the 80's in college, and once managed to be a finalist. Then I was away from chess more than 20 yrs. I hoped to catch up for lost time, but my recent job is taking up so much of my time and energy, that I am afraid I have to give up chess again! I feel sad, but it cannot be avoided any longer - I have to survive. BTW I have no grudge against the service of chess.com - it is in my opinion the best online chess site.
If any of you are using my themes, please make a copy of them while still there is time - when my premium account closes, the themes will disappear:

As I am not getting any refund on my premium annual membership (which expires 3/25/2010), I am leaving chess.com 3/25/2010 (unless I get a less exhausting job by that time).
No I am leaving sooner, I have become so much addicted to chess, that I feel like I have missed a meal if I do not visit this site once a day after returning from work! And when I visit the site, hours seem to fly away - I have so many other things to do - all are being neglected!
