G.K.G.

It's fun to include Gary K. Gifford as part of the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) Gemeinde – not so much because he plays the Jerome Gambit (he doesn't) but because of his support of the opening, publishing several of my Jerome Gambit articles in the fantastic and fantastical "Unorthodox Openings Newsletter" (see "Jerome Gambit Scrapbook") – which can be found among the Yahoo Groups – and coining the nickname "The Jerome Gamble".

Players who like the Jerome Gambit are probably playing their share of unorthodox chess openings, too.

It's also a delight to stop by Chessville and visit Gary's chess comics that fill out "The Chess Player's Chronicles", as well as his tactics page there.

Like I've said: Jerome Gambit Gemeinde members are interesting people!
