Erik Malmsten has prepared some information about the Players. I will flesh it out as I receive information. (I was absent from the chess scene for almost 20 years, so I don't have magazines from that period in whch to look people up; I have En Passant for the last year.) Any information about any of the players (from the players themselves, if possible [are you reading this?] ) would be appreciated. I am looking for a brief bio and/or information on current activities, and significant tournament/match results.
