He just died at 64. He was US champion at 14 and GM at 15, if I remember correctly. He became the US's only official world champion in 1972, and I guess he never defended the title. Great chess player, lousy person. Very sad. Sure glad for what he did for US chess, though.

Bobby Fischer is the greatest chess player in the world. He may rest in peace.

People forget the great ones who never made it because of illness. Mikhail Tal, Henrique Mecking, Harry Nelson Pillsbury.

Tal never made it? He was World Champion!
