There is almost no doubt that I am making more of this than is really
there, but some strange things seem to be happening.
Phil Innes as usual defends Susan Polgar on rec.games.chess.politics
and then immediately Paul Truong attacks Innes for defending Polgar.
Whereas Polgar posts new pictures of herself almost every day, ten
days passed with no new pictures of Polgar, but just recycled old
pictures of Polgar.
Then yesterday a picture of her crassly posing for photographers
appeared on her blog:
http://www.anusha.com/polgar-poses-for-photos.jpg
We have never seen a picture like this before. Usually she pretends
that all of these pictures are taken because she is widely admired,
not because of her crass self-promotion.
She says on her blogspot:
"I will be in charge of the English speaking media for the Olympiad."

Does this mean that if I go there as "English Speaking Media", as I
have at many past Olympiads, she will be in charge of me?
Again, I am almost certainly reading too much into this. I guess we
will know the true situation in a few days.
Will this have any effect on the suit she filed in August for $25
million? One of the chess players she sued says that if she never
comes back to America, it will be a welcome relief.
