This page was originally posted to contact others rather than as any tool of self promotion. The decision was to produce an introduction and to portend basic data conceptual to the ideas and ideals that have formed both a future studies and chess studies reference. It is autobiographical and biographical.
My friend Gary Kasparov was detained recently regarding the critical Russian election issues involved with his formulation of a candidacy. For me an involvement in the political process has proceeded on faith, rather than upon any public involvement. At the match in
I was hard put to answer but said "yes." Now people there commented to the effect that my response was "not true," then Ali Mortizavi our chess analysis and co-worker said "CIA agent is you," or something to that effect. I had no paycheck here, so to hire people without paying them is absurd. Then my response was to reinforce the position "yes," by stating "let me put it this way, the SDI speech would not exist in its form without a comment that I made to the White House commentary line on March 21, 1983." The exact words are hazy but the gist of it is here.
I do not know if the involvement of Gary Kasparov politically had anything to do with this episode, but I met
I played
You see "writing SDI," if you will was nothing very much more than providing an external source that the White House needed to see. It was off the shelf technology if you will. It was for me as it was for Reagan, another commentary, when I picked up that book from my shelf my personal library on about 9AM EST March 21, 1983. The subsequent interplay of the news media and the concurrent discussions made it into a synergy, a much larger reality.
Now I am only touching the surface, however my political science work was entirely a point of understanding, and a will that "I like to see you do well," as regards the actors set for Ronald Reagan. You recognize your own writing, especially when you read your own letters over and over again to get the words right. As stated earlier here it was only because I recognized my ideograph in Reagan's speeches, unique phrases I had written to him prior, that I started with the letters again. You just know the odds, and extrapolate the high likelihood you were quoted, cited, paraphrased, and put to service through your writings.
It was about an every six weeks packet there until 1991, when the end of the
My comeback was working that match in
Now in any regard to responsibility for world events, any "limited liability if you will," I see for myself is I had only presented the data, while others speak, write it and popularize it. These things were applause lines, things you remember for a long time. Phrases keep coming from the 1980s when they are repackaged.
Is this entire project "power without much wealth?" you could suppose if you look at this project as an impersonal experiment, it could be so. There is a high level of competency involving these issues of speaking and writing. It is in another realm than only experiment. No one is really on top of it all but people can maintain their personal sovereignty here.
The problem is the abstraction here is one of dominion by indirect example, not by direct example. The effect is the same. Maybe people who think they are influential are only correct in their own minds, and to the extent they convince others. People aspire to public office so they will have "power." But no one really defines it other than by the office and the "bully pulpit."
I suppose almost no one will read this, given this blog has been posted for more than a year and I have not really promoted it and note the traffic counter.
Charlemagne once said “Let my armies be the rocks and the trees, and the birds in the sky."
Exploring the larger personal "noosphere," if you will. May you nurture all through continuous and appropriate self improvement.
