I am 77 year old retired machinist and a children`s Chess teacher in addition to being the President of the West Orange, NJ Chess Club and a Local Level Tournament Director. Although I am mostly retired from OTB competitions, I did achieve a rating of 1764 about 40 years ago. My current OTB rating is 1536. My USCF Correspondence Rating is 2120 and my ICCF Rating is 2176. I really enjoy Vote Chess on this site and I am a member of the Caro-Kann Cutthroats, Caro-Kann Players and the Killer Derivatives. I do occaisionally comment on various forum subjects as well.
