Wishful thinking and double talk ad nauseum.  Remember their Toiletgate?

The beginning of the end of Newsspeak:
http://www.online-literature.com/orwell/1984/  The unperson and cvPage as the unwebsite for an f.i.d.e. or a chessbase.
To the bastions of Orthodoxy, that Chess was Shatranj is taboo subject, and mere conceptual NextChesses could be grounds for metaphorical impaling on something executable.  Above they talk about preparation, preparation to move 36 and beyond.  They are too mentally sluggish from beholding to vested interests, lazy and unable to do enough homework, research and investigation into true historical roots or future projections. Right below this comment, Grandmaster Seirawan's CV ranks last of all to nobody's chagrin. You could say it was to be expected.  Relatively enlighted GM Fischer said worse, that top-level games were rigged. Regardless, their long-time inflexibility ran wonderful, inventive 64-square Chess ''into the dust'' to use the very own defensive words of the current Chessbase article. They are trapped now in quite narrow sphere of acceptable-to-them topic of repetitive discussion. To recast the symbolic image drawn above in the exact opposite way onto them instead of onto CVers: impalement (like starvation or crucifixion) was a slow death.  The Chessbase article says in the first paragraph ''this renewed the eternal chorus over the pending death of chess.'' If it's eternal, why did it have to be renewed? Don't ask, don't quibble: they are Authority. You know the mentality of the worked-up dedicated fundamentalist, like diehard OrthoChessists.  If eternity is on your side, any reasoning is acceptable.  Orwell's '1984' themes of power and control also help explain unchallengable assertions of illogic.
