Bobby Fischer, considered by many as the best chessplayer ever, has been arrested in Tokyo. The rest of the story is here:

He has made some really untolerable comments about 9/11, and is famous for his violent anti-semitic declaration (he is Jewish).
Yet I think his place is in a hospital, not in a jail. |

When did he crop up on the radar?

I thought he went missing years ago, I never heard anything about the yugoslavia stuff, I should have gotten a computer earlier.

He looks pretty good for 61, I think.
Or is this an old photo?

i think that's an old photo but even if not, it's the condition of his mind that is suspect. |

Here is what Kasparov said about Fischer in the Wall Street Journal :
"People may believe that this is what happens when a genius plays chess -- instead of what happens when a fragile mind leaves his life's work behind." |
