Parting thoughts on Japan
Bobby Fischer, international good will ambassador and chess world one-hit wonder, left Japan for Iceland today. Some parting thoughts from the great man (via today's NY Times):
"I have nothing against Japan," Mr. Fischer told the mob of photographers and reporters at Tokyo's international airport. "You have a criminal government."
Masako Suzuki, his lawyer, later told reporters, "Honestly, I do not think he will come back to Japan anytime soon."
